Minimum compiler versions?

[nlyan2025]

Are the minimum supported compiler versions documented anywhere?

Currently not, sorry. The reason is: I haven't tested it yet.

I know of some issues with GCC 7 and GCC 8. So to be able to use all features with GCC, version 9 would be required.

For Clang and MSVC I'm not sure which is the first version where everything works. If anyone has tested it, I would be happy to add this information to the README.md or the GitHub wiki.

Edit: and if someone has an idea/code to make Cista available for more compilers, I would be happy to integrate this.
