"GCC since version 7 has complete support for C++17" - I don't think that is true. For example, I use g++ 7.1. and there, std::filesystem it not supported. See also this page: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/compiler_support#cpp17

: There is a difference between the full language support and full library support. They are two different things. And with g++ 7.1 yu can use std::filesystem if you use a standard library with full support for it. Libstdc++ just didn't finish the last bits until 9.1, but you can use that with 7.1 if you like, or better yet, forget about the standard library and use something good.

: The correct wording would be "GCC since version 7 has complete support for C++17 Core Language". --Rineau (talk) 08:41, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

:: It is the same for all the compilers, except possibly MSVC who measures standard library support and core language support together. And how would you list clang? Based on libstdc++ like it used historically and still does on most Linux platforms, or with libc++ which it is today developed together with and deployed with on macOS? Perhaps we should list compiler and standard library separately? Carewolf (talk) 17:20, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

I've read this was added in C++17. I wish I'd learned of this years ago reading these documents. I rely on them to know what's new in C++ iterations. --184.20.10.253 (talk) 03:17, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

:You're right, that was a new feature in C++17 and it wasn't in our list. I've added it now. I see it's listed in the answer to the StackOverflow question [https://stackoverflow.com/q/38060436 What are the new features in C++17?] - we should probably go through that answer to see if there's anything else listed there that we've missed. --Zundark (talk) 10:11, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

::Thanks for tending to this. --184.20.10.253 (talk) 02:20, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
