5.7. Using Predefined Preprocessor Macros in Conditional Compilation

You may take advantage of predefined preprocessor macros that allow you to conditionally compile portions of your kernel code.

To introduce Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ Offline Compiler version-specific code and optimizations, structure your kernel program in the following manner:

#if INTELFPGA_CL >= 191
    // use new features added in 19.1 
#else
    // do things the old way
#endif

Where INTELFPGA_CL is the Intel® predefined preprocessor macro set to the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ Offline Compiler version. This macro enables you to version your code based on the compiler version.
