Summary: Compiling with C++11 support

Initial Comment:
Hi,

I was trying to compile a program against log4cplus 1.1.0-rc8 on a new system (for the record, a Raspberry Pi), and had this error message:

Linking CXX executable cachip
CMakeFiles/cachip.dir/ServeClient.cpp.o: In function `ServeClient':
/home/pi/prog/cachip/cachip/ServeClient.cpp:40: undefined reference to `log4cplus::Logger::operator=(log4cplus::Logger&&)'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

This happens because I compiled log4cplus with CMake and no special CXXFLAG, while on the other hand my own program is compiled with -std=c++0x (on GCC 4.6). I'm not sure whether it is a bug or not as I'm not a package maintainer. I guess the library should be compiled unconditionally with C++11 support when the platform's compiler supports it.

Message:
Applications and libraries compiled for different languages (in this case
C++03 and C++11) are not binary compatible (at least not with GCC). This is
true for all libraries in general, not just for log4cplus. You have to
choose the language and specify it that for both log4cplus' compilation and
your application's compilation. To do that for log4cplus just add
-std=c++0x to CXXFLAGS on log4cplus' configure script command line.
