Enforcing C++98/03 for clang












2















The following code is rejected by latest gcc with -std=c++98 option enabled:



#include <random>
int main() {}


due to the c++11 nature of <random> header. But clang accepts it with no warning/error.



Is there a way to say clang to use the c++98/03 standard only? Maybe a bug?

    Unfortunately most compilers seem to allow non standard elements by default (no idea why). On GCC to force standard compliance you need the -pedantic-errors flag. Maybe its the same for clang++?

    "Maybe a bug?" - Definitely a bug. One that's unlikely to be caught since legacy code won't actually include modern headers

  • @YSC from the clang's point of view - maybe... Did clang exist in '03?

  • @StoryTeller: What exactly makes it a bug? If <random> is surrounded by one huge #if __cplusplus > 199711L, making it effectively empty in C++98, I'd be hard-pressed to find wording in C++98 making that a bug.
