Async++ is a lightweight concurrency framework for C++11. The concept was inspired by the Microsoft PPL library and the N3428 C++ standard proposal.

Supported Platforms

The only requirement to use Async++ is a C++11 compiler and standard library. Unfortunately C++11 is not yet fully implemented on most platforms. Here is the list of OS and compiler combinations which are known to work.

  • Linux: GCC 4.7+ and Clang 3.2+
  • Mac: Not tested yet, but it should work with the latest Clang and GCC 4.7+
  • Windows: MSVC 2012 (even with the Nov CTP) does not support enough of C++11. Work is in progress to port to GCC 4.8 on MinGW.

Building and Installing

Instructions for compiling Async++ and using it in your code are available on the Building and Installing page.
