Are any Charm++ application users compiling using the Cray CCE toolchain, rather than GNU, Intel, or PGI? If so, please speak up quickly.

The reason I ask is that Cray CCE up to the current 8.3 release has no support for C++11. We're planning on integrating a series of usability enhancements to Charm++ that fundamentally require C++11 support [1]. This means that Charm++ and applications will not compile with currently available versions of Cray CCE.

Cray has indicated that the next release, 8.4, will come out sometime this year and will have C++11 support. At that time, Charm++ should be able to use it again.
