cppcheck source using C++ 11?

I noticed when I pulled the latest cppcheck source that you've got
at least a few files that are using C++ 11 features now.
Just wondering if this is a definite design decision to go forward with
requiring C++ 11 compatibility?
I ask because my main use of cppcheck has been on an Oracle (Redhat)
Linux 6 system which needs to stay on GCC 4.4 for now. If you're going forward
with only supporting the newer standard, I can understand that, and I'll just have
to stick with an older cppcheck build on that system.
And I'll take this chance to say that I love cppcheck and run it as part of my
nightly build process. Thanks for all your work, and the continuous improvements!

Some C++11 features are being used already and slowly more will be required in future.
See https://github.com/danmar/cppcheck/blob/master/readme.md for more details.
Unless you manage to produce/acquire binaries for your system from a 3rd party you might consider setting up an additional compiler. Maybe use a disctinct account to avoid messing up the whole system?
Yes. Imho it is. We will gradually introduce C++11. We take it slowly because we know there are people that use old platforms.
very interesting. I am very interested to know what compilers users are using. we can't wait for everybody to upgrade their compiler but I do hope that the vast majority will always be able to compile cppcheck. I assume you will upgrade sooner or later. any idea when you might have a decent c++11 compiler?
I appreciate it! :-)
