GCC也要开始飙版本号了

时间:2014-08-19 09:51 来源:linux.it.net.cn 作者:it

据GCC官网消息，正在开发的新版本原计划以版本号4.10发布，目前已改为：开发过程中标记为版本号5.0.0、以版本号5.0.1发布预览版、以版本号5.1.0发布正式版。Bug修复等更新版本将以5.1.1开发版、5.2.0发布版，5.2.1开发版、5.3.0发布版等进行。下一版本以6.x.y迭代此规则。

GCC官方给出的理由是：原来的主版本号意义不大，对开发者不能提供有用的信息。

原本GCC4代已持续10年（2005年2月进入4.0分支至今），每次版本升级均在次版本号位＋1，而Bug修复等在第三位标记，直到最近4.9.0发布（2014年4月），4.9.1发布（2014年7月）
