Eric Newberrybdfb53a2020-10-01 10:43:46 -07001ndn-cxx version 0.7.1
2---------------------
3
4Release date: October 8, 2020
5
6The build requirements have been increased to require Clang >= 4.0, Xcode >= 9.0, and Python >= 3.6.
7Meanwhile, it is *recommended* to use GCC >= 7.4.0 and Boost >= 1.65.1.
8This effectively drops official support for Ubuntu 16.04 when using distribution-provided Boost
9packages -- ndn-cxx may still work on this platform, but we provide no official support for it.
10Additionally, this release drops support for CentOS 7 and adds support for CentOS 8.
