Hi,

I'm having trouble compiling code that contains float128 data type.
I'm using MacOS Big Sur 11.4.
Compiler: gcc version 11.1.0 (Homebrew GCC 11.1.0_1)

I have no other problems with Boost, the only problem is when I use float128.

Please note that I have no problem compiling using libquadmath without using Boost using the __float128 data type.

I use Visual Studio Code:

You can manually fix this by defining BOOST_HAS_FLOAT128 on the command line.  However, you may still hit other errors as __float128 and quadmath.h aren't really fully supported in ISO C++ mode.  The correct fix is to use -std=gnu++20, and then GNU extensions including __float128 are turned on.

HTH, John.
