Deprecated and Removed Compiler Options

This topic lists deprecated and removed compiler options and suggests replacement options, if any are available.

Deprecated and removed options for SYCL and C++ are listed in separate tables. There are currently no removed options for SYCL.

For more information on compiler options, see the detailed descriptions of the individual option descriptions in this section.

Deprecated Options for SYCL

Occasionally, compiler options are marked as deprecated. Deprecated options are still supported in the current release, but they may be unsupported in future releases.

The following table lists options that are currently deprecated.

Note that deprecated options are not limited to this list.

Deprecated Options for C++

Occasionally, compiler options are marked as "deprecated." Deprecated options are still supported in the current release, but they may be unsupported in future releases.

Removed Options for C++

Some compiler options are no longer supported and have been removed. If you use one of these options, the compiler issues a warning, ignores the option, and then proceeds with compilation.

The following two tables list options that are no longer supported.

Note that removed options are not limited to these lists.
