<p>The Clang community is continually striving to improve C++ standards
compliance between releases by submitting and tracking <a
href="cxx_dr_status.html">C++ Defect Reports</a> and implementing resolutions
as they become available.</p>
<p>Experimental work is also under way to implement <a href="#ts">C++ Technical
Specifications</a> that will help drive the future of the C++ programming
language.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/">LLVM bug tracker</a> uses
the "c++" label, as well as mode-specific labels such as "c++11", "c++14",
and so on, to track known bugs with Clang's language conformance.</p>
<h2 id="cxx26">C++2c implementation status</h2>
<!-- TODO add link to the ISO Standard after it's published. -->
<p>Clang has support for some of the features of the C++ standard following
C++23, informally referred to as C++26.</p>
<p>You can use Clang in C++2c mode with the <code>-std=c++2c</code> option.</p>

This is not fully supported during constant expression evaluation until Clang 12.

it was not enabled by default prior to clang 19, but could be enabled with

<h2 id="cxx98">C++98 implementation status</h2>
<p>Clang implements all of the ISO C++ 1998 standard
(including the defects addressed in the ISO C++ 2003 standard)
except for <tt>export</tt> (which was removed in C++11).
<h2 id="dr">Defect reports</h2>
<p>Clang generally aims to implement resolutions to Defect Reports (bug fixes
against prior standards) retroactively, in all prior standard versions where
the fix is meaningful. Significant Defect Report changes to language features
after the publication of the relevant standard are marked (DR) in the above
table.</p>
<p>Clang also has a test suite for conformance to resolutions for issues on the
<a href="http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/cwg_toc.html">C++ core issues list</a>,
most of which are considered Defect Reports.
<a href="cxx_dr_status.html">Implementation status for C++ core issues</a> based on
that test suite is tracked on a separate page.</p>
<h2 id="ts">Technical specifications and standing documents</h2>
<p>ISO C++ also publishes a number of documents describing additional language
and library features that are not part of standard C++.</p>
