<p>Now that there is a definitive ISO standard C++, G++ has a specification
|
|
to adhere to. The C++ language evolved over time, and features that
|
|
used to be acceptable in previous drafts of the standard, such as the ARM
|
|
[Annotated C++ Reference Manual], are no longer accepted. In order to allow
|
|
compilation of C++ written to such drafts, G++ contains some backwards
|
|
compatibilities. <em>All such backwards compatibility features are
|
|
liable to disappear in future versions of G++.</em> They should be considered
|
|
deprecated. See <a href="Deprecated-Features.html#Deprecated-Features">Deprecated Features</a>.

<dl compact="compact">
|
|
<dt><code>For scope</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>If a variable is declared at for scope, it used to remain in scope
|
|
until the end of the scope that contained the for statement (rather
|
|
than just within the for scope). The deprecated
|
|
<samp>-fno-for-scope</samp> option enables this non-standard behavior.
|
|
Without the option, G++ retains this, but issues a warning, if such a
|
|
variable is accessed outside the for scope.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The behavior is deprecated, only available with <samp>-std=c++98</samp>
|
|
<samp>-std=gnu++98</samp> languages and you must use the
|
|
<samp>-fpermissive</samp> option to enable it. The behavior will be
|
|
removed.

|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>Friend Injection</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>The <samp>-ffriend-injection</samp> option makes injected friends visible
|
|
to regular name lookup, unlike standard C++. This option is
|
|
deprecated and will be removed.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>Implicit C language</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Old C system header files did not contain an <code>extern "C" {…}</code>
|
|
scope to set the language. On such systems, all header files are
|
|
implicitly scoped inside a C language scope. Also, an empty prototype
|
|
<code>()</code> is treated as an unspecified number of arguments, rather
|
|
than no arguments, as C++ demands.
