- <h3 class="section">7.11 Deprecated Features</h3>
-
- <p>In the past, the GNU C++ compiler was extended to experiment with new
- features, at a time when the C++ language was still evolving. Now that
- the C++ standard is complete, some of those features are superseded by
- superior alternatives. Using the old features might cause a warning in
- some cases that the feature will be dropped in the future. In other
- cases, the feature might be gone already.
- </p>
- <p>G++ allows a virtual function returning ‘<samp>void *</samp>’ to be overridden
- by one returning a different pointer type. This extension to the
- covariant return type rules is now deprecated and will be removed from a
- future version.
- </p>
- <p>The use of default arguments in function pointers, function typedefs
- and other places where they are not permitted by the standard is
- deprecated and will be removed from a future version of G++.
- </p>
- <p>G++ allows floating-point literals to appear in integral constant expressions,
- e.g. ‘<samp> enum E { e = int(2.2 * 3.7) } </samp>’
- This extension is deprecated and will be removed from a future version.
- </p>
- <p>G++ allows static data members of const floating-point type to be declared
- with an initializer in a class definition. The standard only allows
- initializers for static members of const integral types and const
- enumeration types so this extension has been deprecated and will be removed
- from a future version.
- </p>
- <p>G++ allows attributes to follow a parenthesized direct initializer,
- e.g. ‘<samp> int f (0) __attribute__ ((something)); </samp>’ This extension
- has been ignored since G++ 3.3 and is deprecated.
- </p>
- <p>G++ allows anonymous structs and unions to have members that are not
- public non-static data members (i.e. fields). These extensions are
- deprecated.
