Syntastic does not check for g++14, but for gcc

[Muadib Guitarlord]

Hello,

and for starters thank you for this amazing plugin! :)

I have a problem when checking a  .cpp file for errors, specifically it complains about "'constexpr' was not declared in this scope" while the compiler compiles without errors.

This simple code looks like this:

Int main()
{
     constexpr int LENGTH = 5;
     return 0;
}

Running :SyntasticInfo reveals:

      Syntastic version: 3.8.0-65 (Vim 800, Linux)
      Info for filetype: cpp
      Global mode: active
      Filetype cpp is active
      The current file will be checked automatically
      Available checker: gcc
      Currently enabled checker: gcc

Yet, in my .vimrc I have for Syntastic:

            let g:syntastic_go_checkers = ['golint', 'govet', 'errcheck']
            let g:syntastic_mode_map = { 'mode': 'active', 'passive_filetypes': ['go'] }
            let g:syntastic_cpp_compiler = 'g++'
            let g:syntastic_cpp_compiler_options = '-std=gnu++1z'


Any help kindly appreciated!

All Best,
Muadib25

I can't reproduce this with gcc 7.2.0. Please enable debugging
(cf. ":h syntastic-debug") and make sure the command syntastic runs
ressembles what you thought it runs.

Also please consider not using HTML formatting in your bug reports
to this group. As you can see above it makes your reports impossible to
handle by email. Better yet, post further issues to the official issue
tracker at GitHub.

@lcd,

Thanks for the help, will do so.

As for syntastic-debug, I added in .vimrc:
"let g:syntastic_debug = 33"

as per the help you named, but I didn't get any special messages when running ':mes' after ':SyntasticCheck'.

Best Regards,
M

What kind of "special" message did you expect? Please:

(1) open your test file
(2) run:

:let g:syntastic_debug=3
:SyntasticCheck gcc
:mes

(3) post the (unedited) output.

You can tell Vim to redirect said output to a file if you need to.

Great, 

Will do so tonight when I get home.

Thanks again, lcd!

Regarding the 'special messages' I mentioned earlier, I was expecting a log or something.
Speaking of which, the ':let g:syntastic_debug=3' one did the trick.

Here is the unedited output:

Ok, so here's what syntastic does:

cd /home/orpheus/Documents/UnrealProjects/Section_02/BullCowGame

g++ -x c++ -fsyntax-only -I. -I.. -Iinclude -Iincludes -I../include -I../includes Main.cpp

The option "-std=gnu++1z" is somehow lost, which means either you messed
up the name of the relevant option, or the file that contains said
option doesn't get sourced by Vim. What happens if you set it manually:
open your test file and run:

:let g:syntastic_cpp_compiler_options='-std=gnu++1z'

:let g:syntastic_debug=3
:SyntasticCheck gcc
:mes

I solved the issue, I was adding the syntastic lines together with the ones supplied with spf13 plugin package,
but those are inside an 'if' statement.

I took them out in the open and that solved the problem, Syntastic now happily checks against '-std=c++14' now.


Thank you! :)

By mentioning Syntastic lines, I mean the ones inside the .vimrc config file.

I just saw yor reply, it checks correctly.

syntastic: 235.314307: SyntasticMake: called with options: {'postprocess': [], 'errorformat': '%-G%f:%s:,%f:%l:%c: %trror: %m,%f:%l:%c:

Thanks again, lcd!
