Hi.

I'm having some warnings when trying to compile C++ RIOT with some header files.
For example, I added "net/netdev2.h" in riot_and_cpp and example and got errors like this:

/home/jialamos/RIOT/sys/include/net/netopt.h:225:17: error: comma at end of enumerator list [-Werror=pedantic]
     NETOPT_NUMOF,

Commas at the end of enumerator list are valid in C99, but seems not to be valid when linking with G++ and pedantic flag.
I'm using Gcc 4.8.4.

Anyone else with a problem like this?

Why did you close the issue? You are right!

C++03 does not allow trailing commas, this feature was only added in C++11. C99 does allow trailing commas, but legends tell that C++03 was intended be compatible with ANSI C, which did not allow trailing commas.

Hi, I closed this issue because due to browser fault it was posted twice.

So, we would need to remove the trailing commas of all files.
I know some net header files that have this, I will try to identify the rest.

for some headers that might be difficult, as parts are conditionally enabled by the preprocessor... how's c++11 support in gcc&clang? maybe it makes more sense to require that..

This [1] page from TI suggests there's a GCC 5.3.0 for msp430!

There's another issue somewhere in the tracker, but I don't remember the
issue number. I think that it's only the msp430 which still uses a gcc 4.6
toolchain which would have trouble with c++11. All other platforms have
well supported toolchains based on gcc 4.8 or later.

I mark this as a known issue though it seems rather specific. If you don't agree, shout! ;-)

RIOT-2016.10 - Release Notes
============================
RIOT is a real-time multi-threading operating system that supports a range of
devices that are typically found in the Internet of Things: 8-bit
microcontrollers, 16-bit microcontrollers and light-weight 32-bit processors.

RIOT is based on the following design principles: energy-efficiency, real-time
capabilities, small memory footprint, modularity, and uniform API access,
independent of the underlying hardware (this API offers partial POSIX
compliance).

RIOT is developed by an international open source community which is
independent of specific vendors (e.g. similarly to the Linux community) and is
licensed with a non-viral copyleft license (LGPLv2.1), which allows indirect
business models around the free open-source software platform provided by
RIOT.

About this release:
===================
This release provides a lot of new features as well as it  fixes several major
bugs. Among these new features are the new simplified network socket API
called sock, the GNRC specific CoAP implementation gcoap and several new
packages: TinyDTLS, the Aversive++ microcontroller library for robotics, the
u8g2 graphic library, and nanocoap.
Using the new sock API an implementation of the Simple Time Network Protocol
(SNTP) was also introduced, allowing for time synchronization between nodes.
New platforms include the Arduino Uno, the Arduino Duemilanove, the Arduino
Zero, SODAQ Autonomo, and the Zolertia remote (rev. B).
The most significant bug fix was done in native which led to a significantly
more robust handling of ISRs and now allows for at least 1,000 native
instances running stably on one machine.

About 263 pull requests with about 398 commits have been merged since the last
release and about 42 issues have been solved. 37 people contributed with code
in 100 days. 1006 files have been touched with 166500 insertions and 26926
deletions.

Fixed Issues from the last release
==================================
 #534:  native debugging on osx fails
 #2071: native: *long* overdue fixes
 #3341: netdev2_tap crashes when hammered
 #5007: gnrc icmpv6: Ping reply goes out the wrong interface
 #5432: native: valgrind fails

Known Issues
============
Networking related issues
-------------------------
 #3075: nhdp: unnecessary microsecond precision: NHDP works with timer values
       of microsecond precision which is not required. Changing to lower
       precision would save some memory.
 #4048: potential racey memory leak: According to the packet buffer stats,
       flood-pinging a multicast destination may lead to a memory leak due to
       a race condition. However, it seems to be a rare case and a completely
       filled up packet buffer was not observed.
 #4388: POSIX sockets: open socket is bound to a specific thread: This was an
       inherit problem of the conn API under GNRC. Since the POSIX sockets are
       still based on conn for this release, this issue persists
 #4527: gnrc_ipv6: Multicast is not forwarded if routing node listens to the
       address (might still be fixable for release, see #5729, #5230: gnrc
       ipv6: multicast packets are not dispatched to the upper layers)
 #5016: gnrc_rpl: Rejoining RPL instance as root after reboot messes up routing
 #5055: cpuid: multiple radios will get same EUI-64 Nodes with multiple
       interfaces might get the same EUI-64 for them since they are generated
       from the same CPU ID.
 #5656: Possible Weakness with locking in the GNRC network stack: For some
       operations mutexes to the network interfaces need to get unlocked in
       the current implementation to not get deadlocked. Recursive mutexes as
       provided in #5731 might help to solve this problem.
 #5748: gnrc: nodes crashing with too small packet buffer: A packet buffer of
       size ~512 B might lead to crashes. The issue describes this for several
       hundret nodes, but agressive flooding with just two nodes was also
       shown to lead to this problem.
 #5858: gnrc: 6lo: potential problem with reassembly of fragments: If one frame
       gets lost the reassembly state machine might get out of sync

 ### NDP is not working properly
 #4499: handle of l2src_len in gnrc_ndp_rtr_sol_handle: Reception of a router
       solicitation might lead to invalid zero-length link-layer addresses in
       neighbor cache.
 #5005: ndp: router advertisement sent with global address: Under some
       circumstances a router might send RAs with GUAs. While they are ignored
       on receive (as RFC 4861 specifies), RAs should have link-local
       addresses and not even be send out this way.
 #5122: NDP: global unicast address on non-6LBR nodes disappears after a while:
       Several issues (also see #5760) lead to a global unicast address
       effectively being banned from the network (disappears from neighbor
       cache, is not added again)
 #5467: ipv6 address vanishes when ARO (wrongly) indicates DUP caused by
       outdated ncache at router
 #5539: Border Router: packet not forwarded from ethos to interface 6
 #5790: ND: Lost of Global IPV6 on node after sending lot of UDP frame from BR

Timer related issues
--------------------
 #4841: xtimer: timer already in the list: Under some conditions an xtimer can
       end up twice in the internal list of the xtimer module
 #4902: xtimer: xtimer_set: xtimer_set does not handle integer overflows well
 #5338: xtimer: xtimer_now() not ISR safe for non-32-bit platforms.
 #5928: xtimer: usage in board_init() crashes: some boards use the xtimer in
       there board_init() function. The xtimer is however first initialized in
       the auto_init module which is executed after board_init()
 #6052: tests: xtimer_drift gets stuck: xtimer_drift application freezes after
       ~30-200 seconds

native related issues
---------------------
 #495:  native not float safe: When the FPU is used when an asynchronous context
       switch occurs, either the stack gets corrupted or a floating point
       exception occurs.
 #2175: ubjson: valgind registers "Invalid write of size 4" in unittests
 #4590: pkg: building relic with clang fails.
 #5796: native: tlsf: early malloc will lead to a crash: TLSF needs pools to be
       initialized (which is currently expected to be done in an application).
       If a malloc is needed before an application's main started (e.g. driver
       initialization) the node can crash, since no pool is allocated yet.

other platform related issues
-----------------------------
 #1891: newlib-nano: Printf formatting does not work properly for some numberic
       types: PRI[uxdi]64, PRI[uxdi]8 and float are not parsed in newlib-nano
 #2006: cpu/nrf51822: timer callback may be fired too early
 #2143: unittests: tests-core doesn't compile for all platforms: GCC build-ins
       were used in the unittests which are not available with msp430-gcc

 #4512: pkg: tests: RELIC unittests fail on iotlab-m3
 #4522: avsextrem: linker sometimes doesn't find `bl_init_clks()`
 #4560: make: clang is more pedantic than gcc oonf_api is not building with
       clang. (Partly solved by #4593)
 #4694: drivers/lm75a: does not build
 #4737: cortex-m: Hard fault after a thread exits (under some circumstances)
 #4822: kw2xrf: packet loss when packets get fragmented
 #4876: at86rf2xx: Simultaneous use of different transceiver types is not
       supported
 #4954: chronos: compiling with -O0 breaks
 #4866: not all GPIO driver implementations are thread safe: Due to non-atomic
       operations in the drivers some pin configurations might get lost.
 #5009: RIOT is saw-toothing in energy consumption (even when idling)
 #5103: xtimer: weird behavior of tests/xtimer_drift: xtimer_drift randomly
       jumps a few seconds on nrf52
 #5361: cpu/cc26x0: timer broken
 #5405: Eratic timings on iotlab-m3 with compression context activated
 #5460: cpu/samd21: i2c timing with compiler optimization
 #5486: at86rf2xx: lost interrupts
 #5489: cpu/lpc11u34: ADC broken

RIOT-2016.10 - Release Notes
============================
RIOT is a real-time multi-threading operating system that supports a range of
devices that are typically found in the Internet of Things: 8-bit
microcontrollers, 16-bit microcontrollers and light-weight 32-bit processors.

RIOT is based on the following design principles: energy-efficiency, real-time
capabilities, small memory footprint, modularity, and uniform API access,
independent of the underlying hardware (this API offers partial POSIX
compliance).

RIOT is developed by an international open source community which is
independent of specific vendors (e.g. similarly to the Linux community) and is
licensed with a non-viral copyleft license (LGPLv2.1), which allows indirect
business models around the free open-source software platform provided by
RIOT.

About this release:
===================
This release provides a lot of new features as well as it  fixes several major
bugs. Among these new features are the new simplified network socket API
called sock, the GNRC specific CoAP implementation gcoap and several new
packages: TinyDTLS, the Aversive++ microcontroller library for robotics, the
u8g2 graphic library, and nanocoap.
Using the new sock API an implementation of the Simple Time Network Protocol
(SNTP) was also introduced, allowing for time synchronization between nodes.
New platforms include the Arduino Uno, the Arduino Duemilanove, the Arduino
Zero, SODAQ Autonomo, and the Zolertia remote (rev. B).
The most significant bug fix was done in native which led to a significantly
more robust handling of ISRs and now allows for at least 1,000 native
instances running stably on one machine.

About 263 pull requests with about 398 commits have been merged since the last
release and about 42 issues have been solved. 37 people contributed with code
in 100 days. 1006 files have been touched with 166500 insertions and 26926
deletions.

Fixed Issues from the last release
==================================
 RIOT-OS#534:  native debugging on osx fails
 RIOT-OS#2071: native: *long* overdue fixes
 RIOT-OS#3341: netdev2_tap crashes when hammered
 RIOT-OS#5007: gnrc icmpv6: Ping reply goes out the wrong interface
 RIOT-OS#5432: native: valgrind fails

Known Issues
============
Networking related issues
-------------------------
 RIOT-OS#3075: nhdp: unnecessary microsecond precision: NHDP works with timer values
       of microsecond precision which is not required. Changing to lower
       precision would save some memory.
 RIOT-OS#4048: potential racey memory leak: According to the packet buffer stats,
       flood-pinging a multicast destination may lead to a memory leak due to
       a race condition. However, it seems to be a rare case and a completely
       filled up packet buffer was not observed.
 RIOT-OS#4388: POSIX sockets: open socket is bound to a specific thread: This was an
       inherit problem of the conn API under GNRC. Since the POSIX sockets are
       still based on conn for this release, this issue persists
 RIOT-OS#4527: gnrc_ipv6: Multicast is not forwarded if routing node listens to the
       address (might still be fixable for release, see RIOT-OS#5729, RIOT-OS#5230: gnrc
       ipv6: multicast packets are not dispatched to the upper layers)
 RIOT-OS#5016: gnrc_rpl: Rejoining RPL instance as root after reboot messes up routing
 RIOT-OS#5055: cpuid: multiple radios will get same EUI-64 Nodes with multiple
       interfaces might get the same EUI-64 for them since they are generated
       from the same CPU ID.
 RIOT-OS#5656: Possible Weakness with locking in the GNRC network stack: For some
       operations mutexes to the network interfaces need to get unlocked in
       the current implementation to not get deadlocked. Recursive mutexes as
       provided in RIOT-OS#5731 might help to solve this problem.
 RIOT-OS#5748: gnrc: nodes crashing with too small packet buffer: A packet buffer of
       size ~512 B might lead to crashes. The issue describes this for several
       hundret nodes, but agressive flooding with just two nodes was also
       shown to lead to this problem.
 RIOT-OS#5858: gnrc: 6lo: potential problem with reassembly of fragments: If one frame
       gets lost the reassembly state machine might get out of sync

 ### NDP is not working properly
 RIOT-OS#4499: handle of l2src_len in gnrc_ndp_rtr_sol_handle: Reception of a router
       solicitation might lead to invalid zero-length link-layer addresses in
       neighbor cache.
 RIOT-OS#5005: ndp: router advertisement sent with global address: Under some
       circumstances a router might send RAs with GUAs. While they are ignored
       on receive (as RFC 4861 specifies), RAs should have link-local
       addresses and not even be send out this way.
 RIOT-OS#5122: NDP: global unicast address on non-6LBR nodes disappears after a while:
       Several issues (also see RIOT-OS#5760) lead to a global unicast address
       effectively being banned from the network (disappears from neighbor
       cache, is not added again)
 RIOT-OS#5467: ipv6 address vanishes when ARO (wrongly) indicates DUP caused by
       outdated ncache at router
 RIOT-OS#5539: Border Router: packet not forwarded from ethos to interface 6
 RIOT-OS#5790: ND: Lost of Global IPV6 on node after sending lot of UDP frame from BR

Timer related issues
--------------------
 RIOT-OS#4841: xtimer: timer already in the list: Under some conditions an xtimer can
       end up twice in the internal list of the xtimer module
 RIOT-OS#4902: xtimer: xtimer_set: xtimer_set does not handle integer overflows well
 RIOT-OS#5338: xtimer: xtimer_now() not ISR safe for non-32-bit platforms.
 RIOT-OS#5928: xtimer: usage in board_init() crashes: some boards use the xtimer in
       there board_init() function. The xtimer is however first initialized in
       the auto_init module which is executed after board_init()
 RIOT-OS#6052: tests: xtimer_drift gets stuck: xtimer_drift application freezes after
       ~30-200 seconds

native related issues
---------------------
 RIOT-OS#495:  native not float safe: When the FPU is used when an asynchronous context
       switch occurs, either the stack gets corrupted or a floating point
       exception occurs.
 RIOT-OS#2175: ubjson: valgind registers "Invalid write of size 4" in unittests
 RIOT-OS#4590: pkg: building relic with clang fails.
 RIOT-OS#5796: native: tlsf: early malloc will lead to a crash: TLSF needs pools to be
       initialized (which is currently expected to be done in an application).
       If a malloc is needed before an application's main started (e.g. driver
       initialization) the node can crash, since no pool is allocated yet.

other platform related issues
-----------------------------

The trailing commas are still there in master, lines 465, 473, 495, 507.

RIOT defaults to -std=c99, but AFAICT there is no global switch for C++, only for some modules.

We since have bumped -std to -std=c++14. So trailing commas in initializer lists are no longer an issue :)
