Notes:

  1. List of host operating systems and/or ⟨cross-compilation targets⟩.
  2. Uses a Clang Front End.[27][28]
  3. Uses an EDG Front End.[32]
  4. The Cray C++ Libraries do not support wide characters and only support a single locale.
  5. Uses a GCC Front End.[34][35]
  6. The EDGE C/C++ compiler is based on the Microtec C/C++ compiler.
  7. Last Open64 v5.0 uses GCC 4.2 as its Front End, which doesn't support any C++11.[34][35]
