c++11 - c++ version supported by cuda 5.0

Question

I can't find which version/which concepts of c++ is/are supported by CUDA 5.0. I could not find any information in the Programming Guide or Reference Guide delivered with the CUDA 5.0 RC. Especially I'm wondering if CUDA 5.0 supports C++11. Could someone point me to a place to look for this information?

Answer 1

Apperently no C++11 features are available in 5.0 RC. nvcc still does not understand C++11 syntax used in the standard includes of gcc 4.6 (see Error while using CUDA and C++11):
