Apple XCode for C and C++ If you want to learn to program on a Mac, XCode is the way to go. This tutorial will get you set up to do C or C++ development with XCode, but you can also use XCode for iPhone and iOS development.
Xcode 4.6. 2 uses the Clang C++ compiler frontend with LLVM as backend which is conform to the C++11 standart and uses libc++ as the standart library.
XCode now defaults to C++20 : r/cpp.
To download the C/C++ extension, go to the extension tab in VS code as shown in the image. Search for the C/C++ extension by Microsoft in the search bar and then click install. As we have done installing the editor as well as the extension let's write a simple C program in the editor.
Clang/LLVM are Macs' default compiler.
Now, about C++14:
Clang has experimental support for some proposed features of the C++ standard following C++14, provisionally named C++1z. Note that support for these features may change or be removed without notice, as the draft C++1z standard evolves.
You can use Clang in C++1z mode with the -std=c++1z option.
from Clang/LLVM's documentation
So just add "-std=c++1z" to your compile options in Xcode (without the quotes).
I was just now having the same problem. I found this in the build settings:
The drop-down menu has a C++14 option. It solved the problem for me.
