Ticket to track progress of implementation to get cxxomfort to compile on Watcom 1.9 (SF.net release) and OpenWatcom 2.0 beta (platforms untested as of latest 2018).

Watcom 1.9 is an old compiler that lacks support for some basic C++ features (and hence for TR1, etc) but still has enough to be given base feaures and some backports by Cxxomfort. OpenWatcom is a fork of the released code aiming for complete C++11 compatibility.

Links to track implementor progress: Github Wiki.

[4dad71eb] adds string_view support for OpenWatcom 2.0 (prereleases) as well as minor fixes in compiler identification that allow, among other things, to use some features from <utility>.
