How can I find a list of major changes that have been made to the language from since C++03 to C++0X?

Highly subjective question. Check out this page. – Prasoon Saurav May 22 '11 at 12:42
Has there been C++03, C++04 .. C++0x or Did it jump from C++03 to C++0x? – parc65 May 22 '11 at 12:48

It's not subjective if the question refers to the standard, and not the vast array of implementations. @parc: Yes, it jumped. The number is the last part of the year the standard was released. C++98, released November 1998, came before C++03. – Mike DeSimone May 22 '11 at 12:51
Thanks, thats all I needed to know. – parc65 May 22 '11 at 12:54
You could Google it... – Dynamic Jun 3 '12 at 2:04

That's fair enough, but anyone can simply list links. What do those links say? (And how will we know what they say when the link rots?) – Frank Shearar May 22 '11 at 17:55
@frank: Maybe read those link and get your information? Or your are too lazy to do that? – yes123 May 22 '11 at 19:56

Clearly you miss my point. (a) Good answers are not lists of links. (b) Links rot, and when they do, your answer is worse than useless: it tantalises with the possibility of being useful, only to dash the hopes of those reading your answer years from now. Or are you too lazy than to answer with JFGI? – Frank Shearar May 22 '11 at 20:20
The last one is especially bad, it's just made up of more links. – Izkata Mar 7 '12 at 22:51

A good start can be wikipedia itself which categorically lists the major changes to the language.

  • Core language usability enhancements
  • Core language functionality improvements
  • C++ standard library changes
