Upgrade minimum support GCC from 4.7.2 with C++11 to something higher (4.8.4 or 4.9.3)?
Created by: bartlettroscoe
Next Action Status:
Looks like some customers need GCC 4.8.4 with C++11 Trilinos currently. Next: Decide to make the downgrade the CI server from GCC 4.9.3 back to GCC 4.8.4 (which currently passes the full CI test suite) ...

Description:
Maintaining support for GCC 4.7.2 puts a lot of constraints on the C++11 code that you can write and is holding back Trilinos development (see #1002 (closed)). This story is to remove testing and support for GCC 4.7.2 and upgrade to GCC 4.8.x or newer (GCC 4.9.3 would be better given that is what Sierra uses).
