Description (last modified by Stuart Campbell) (diff)
This is for the Mac only. The standard library currently used is ancient. This is the bottleneck to being able to develop using the latest c++ tools and language features.
The current plan is to branch ThirdParty for the mac and recompile all the libraries using a better standard library. We expect that this ticket can be worked on without affecting any other aspect of the Mantid development.
Stuart seems to have the best handle on this, so has the honor of ticket ownership. Although, he can delegate as he sees fit.

Found a worrying note in the Intel C++ release notes:
3.5.1 No support for libc++.
The Intel compiler currently does not support the new libc++ library on OS X* (-stdlib=libc++).

I have compiled all the dependencies, but I am thinking about a new approach of using homebrew to support our dependencies similar to relying on packages on linux.
