# Known limitations
-Catch has some known limitations, that we are not planning to change. Some of these are caused by our desire to support C++98 compilers, some of these are caused by our desire to keep Catch crossplatform, some exist because their priority is seen as low compared to the development effort they would need and some other yet are compiler/runtime bugs.
+Over time, some limitations of Catch2 emerged. Some of these are due
+to implementation details that cannot be easily changed, some of these
+are due to lack of development resources on our part, and some of these
+are due to plain old 3rd party bugs.

## Implementation limits
### Sections nested in loops
-If you are using `SECTION`s inside loops, you have to create them with different name per loop's iteration. The recommended way to do so is to incorporate the loop's counter into section's name, like so

+### Tests might be run again if last section fails

+If the last section in a test fails, it might be run again. This is because

+if the last section in test case is aborted during execution (e.g. via
+the `REQUIRE` family of macros), Catch2 does not know that there are no
+more sections in that test case and must run the test case again.

## Features
This section outlines some missing features, what is their status and their possible workarounds.

This is a bug in `libstdc++-4.8`, where all matching methods from `` return false. Since `Matches` uses `` internally, if the underlying implementation does not work, it doesn't work either.
Workaround: Use newer version of `libstdc++`.
