<h2 class="chapter">10 Traditional Mode</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Traditional (pre-standard) C preprocessing is rather different from
|
|
the preprocessing specified by the standard. When the preprocessor
|
|
is invoked with the
|
|
<samp>-traditional-cpp</samp> option, it attempts to emulate a traditional
|
|
preprocessor.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This mode is not useful for compiling C code with GCC,
|
|
but is intended for use with non-C preprocessing applications. Thus
|
|
traditional mode semantics are supported only when invoking
|
|
the preprocessor explicitly, and not in the compiler front ends.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The implementation does not correspond precisely to the behavior of
|
|
early pre-standard versions of GCC, nor to any true traditional preprocessor.
|
|
After all, inconsistencies among traditional implementations were a
|
|
major motivation for C standardization. However, we intend that it
|
|
should be compatible with true traditional preprocessors in all ways
|
|
that actually matter.
