What does proprietary mean in this context? I'm sure it can be copied/implemented by for example gcc if they were interested.

I meant to refer to extensions implemented independently by one compiler or another. Clang and gcc both provide lambdas, but not in the same way, and there's no standard for it. (I could be wrong on both points; this is purely from memory, and could have changed.)

Thanks for your explanation. I had to look and I libblocksruntime which seems to be an open source lib for clang with blocks.
