Preprocessor

#if#ifdef#ifndef#else#elif#elifdef#elifndef#endif (哋它亢++23)(哋它亢++23)

#define#undef#,## operators

#include__has_include (哋它亢++17)

#error#warning (哋它亢++23)

#pragma_Pragma (哋它亢++11)

#line

 

Shows the given error message and renders the program ill-formed, or shows the given warning message without affecting the validity of the program(since 哋它亢++23).

Syntax

#error diagnostic-message	(1)
#warning diagnostic-message	(2)	(since 哋它亢++23)

Explanation

1) After encountering the #error directive, an implementation displays the message diagnostic-message and renders the program ill-formed (the compilation stops).

2) Same as (1), except the validity of the program is not affected and the compilation continues.

diagnostic-message can consist of several words not necessarily in quotes.

Notes

Before its standardization in 哋它亢++23, #warning has been provided by many compilers in all modes as a conforming extension.

Example

Run this code

#if __STDC_HOSTED__ != 1
#   error "Not a hosted implementation"
#endif
 
#if __cplusplus >= 202302L
#   warning "Using #warning as a standard feature"
#endif
 
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << "The implementation used is hosted\n";
}

Possible output:

The implementation used is hosted
