Add compiler detection for C++11 features support

[asmodehn]

Why not think it as the default (we are in 2014 now after all) and check when not supported ?

I agree for most software. However many compilers do not implement it
completely yet... and in that case we should provide a fallback behavior.

So we will have anyway multiple fallbacks behavior in code... which means
the build system needs to detect and pick the fallback behaviors we need
when we need them.

That is the job of wkcmake, so it still has to know about multiple versions
of c++...

That's what i meant: default support and fallback when needed.
The title of the ticket was suggesting the opposite.

By the way which compiler do not implement it yet ?

Visual 2013, at least.

Gcc is almost there, but the 2014 standard will come out sometime soon so...
http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx0x.html

Actually wkcmake will have to move to cmake 3.0 since it includes macros to
detect c++11 features...
That should probably be the first step.

Cmake 3.0 will be out soon, there are no remaining bugs to be fixed for the
released. It was planned to go out early february....

Thanks for those links, very interesting.
Here is the one for Intel compiler http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/c0x-features-supported-by-intel-c-compiler
