Armadillo 15.0.* now makes C++14 the minimum compilation standard. For most packages, adapting to it can be very simple, and yours is one of them. In this PR we simply remove the declaration from Makevars and Makevars.win -- and no other changes are needed. I allowed myself to remote a link instruction for Rcpp we have not needed for a decade now, and note that you have OpenMP setup instruction in Makevars.win (though Windows has no OpenMP) but not in Makevars so you could consider copying that over. If you want to compare, the current two reference files are in the repo here and similarly in your installed copy of RcppArmadillo.

Please see issues #475 and below for context, and notably #489 for this first wave of PRs. It would be terrific if you could make an upload to CRAN 'soon' to remove the reliance on C++11 which we needed in the past, but which is by now a hindrance. Of course, CRAN also now wants you to remove C++11 use and imposed a deadline on your package. Using the PR and re-uploading will help you meet this.

Please do not hesitate to reach out if I can assist in any way or clarify matters.
