Today I released v1.2.6 of ghc::filesystem . The main reason was an issue with fs::path::preferred_seperator. The previous implementation didn’t compile on pre-C++17 compilers when the seperator was accessed. The Bugfix for #27 , was a bit more work than expected, but now it works on all tested compilers.

Additionally, two pull requests found their way into this release, and I want to thank the supporters for their work.

Today I released v1.2.4 of ghc::filesystem . It mainly contains a fix for issue #22 , where ghc::filesystem::copy() wouldn’t allways forward given copy_options to a ghc::filesystem::copy_file() call.

Today I released a bugfix version of ghc::filesystem . It only contains a fix for issue #21 , where compiling on Alpine Linux with musl instead of glibc chooses the wrong strerror_r signature.

The musl headers sadly don’t conform to the preprocessor expression of the linux man file (_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600) && ! _GNU_SOURCE for strerror_r, so there was no well defined preprocessor way of solving this.

Today I released v1.2.0 of ghc::filesystem , my implementation of C++17 std::filesystem for C++11, C++14 and C++17.

This release added MinGW 32/64 and Visual Studio 2015 builds to the CI configuration and brought new optional features, like a standard conforming wchar_t/std::wstring interface on Windows and optional unicode errors, along with a set of bug fixes.
