# C++ Standard Libraries
|
|
|
|
There are two C++ standard libraries supported by Apple compilers.
|
|
|
|
The default for 10.8 and earlier is **libstdc++**, supported by Apple GCC
|
|
compilers, GNU GCC compilers, and `clang`. This was marked deprecated with a
|
|
warning during compile as of Xcode 8.
|
|
|
|
The default for 10.9 is **libc++**, which is also the default for `clang` on older
|
|
platforms when building C++11 code.
|
|
|
|
There are subtle incompatibilities between several of the C++ standard libraries,
|
|
so Homebrew will refuse to install software if a dependency was built with an
|
|
incompatible C++ library. It's recommended that you install the dependency tree
|
|
using a compatible compiler.
|
|
|
|
**If you've upgraded to 10.9 from an earlier version** - because the default C++
|
|
standard library is now libc++, you may not be able to build software using
|
|
dependencies that you built on 10.8 or lower. If you're reading this page because
|
|
you were directed here by a build error, you can most likely fix the issue if
|
|
you reinstall all the dependencies of the package you're trying to build.
|
|
|
|
Example install using GCC 4.8: ```brew install DESIRED_FORMULA --cc=gcc-4.8```.
|
|
Get GCC 4.8 via: ```brew install gcc48```
