cross platform way to use c++ filesystem library #3685

Open mjsurette opened 6 years ago

mjsurette commented 6 years ago

I have a project using the c++ filesystem library. Using g++ under Linux, it links with cpp_link_args set to '-lstdc++fs'

Is there a cross-platform way to link to the filesystem library?

I'm not aware of any. One would imagine that the current situation is transitional and that the fs lib moves in the standard library. If not, and all the compilers come up with their own way of using it and commit it to being stable, we can add support for that.
