I see that you're on Lion, that MacPorts has chosen to use the llvm-g++ compiler, and that it does not understand the "-std=c++0x" flag. I am not surprised llvm-g++ doesn't understand that flag, but I am surprised MacPorts chose to use llvm-g++. What version of Xcode is installed (find out by getting info on Xcode.app), and what version of clang? (find out by running "clang -v")

Replying to ryandesign@…:

I had the same error.

here are the xcode info:

  Version:	4.2.1 (4D502)
  Location:	/Developer
  Applications:
  Xcode:	4.2.1 (834)
  Instruments:	4.2 (4233)
  Dashcode:	3.0.2 (336)
  SDKs:
  Mac OS X:
  10.6:	(10K549)
  10.7:	(11C63)

%clang -v
Apple clang version 3.0 (tags/Apple/clang-211.12) (based on LLVM 3.0svn)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin11.4.2
Thread model: posix

---

The xcode I have is based on gcc-4.2. I do have a newer version gcc49 installed using 'sudo port install gcc49'. Even after adding /opt/local/bin to the beginning of my $PATH, the configure still could not find (or use?) the newer compiler.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

ykzhou: It is intentional that MacPorts does not use a compiler you have installed or selected.

Can you upgrade to a newer version of Xcode? The latest that is compatible with OS X 10.7 is 4.6.3.

[fortran_cc@…]

thank you.

installing xcode 4.6.3 solved the compiler problem. now my macport is back to normal.
