GenericContainer compilation error in macOS 10.14.2, Apple LLVM version 10.0.0 (clang-1000.11.45.5) about bipedal-locomotion-framework HOT 6 CLOSED

I updated the macOS to Catalina 10.15. Still the gcc version was only 8. I upgraded the gcc. The version was bumped to 10.0.
So apparently, this version of gcc fully supports C++17 standards. And I was able to compile without any errors.

I will close this issue.

As in GitHub actions we are testing only macOS 10.15 (see https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/virtual-environments-for-github-hosted-runners#supported-runners-and-hardware-resources), should we just update the macOS machine and support only macOS >= 10.15 ?

A quick test could be to change https://github.com/dic-iit/bipedal-locomotion-framework/blob/26f45d714097ad3fe299025122cae1864cbef497/src/GenericContainer/tests/GenericContainerTestPlusYarp.cpp#L35 to

GenericContainer::Vector<double> container(iDynTree::make_span(vector)); 

but if we are able to match the machine we are using in the Actions, that would be even better 🤔

I am running an update for that.

However, looks like C++17 is not being enforced by the gcc version that was existing. I will see if there is a bump in the gcc version after the upgrade and see if it allows the use of C++17.

Interesting: I would expect that on macOS with XCode by default clang is used, not gcc.

Uhm, not sure. But I was compiling it from the terminal.
