C++ language support of the compiler

The compiler optionally supports the language scope compatible with the previous version C/C++ V3.2 as well as the language defined in the C++ standards ISO/IEC 14882:2017 and ISO/IEC 14882:2020.

The previous language modes are described in detail in the 2nd and 3rd edition of “The C++ Programming Language” by Bjarne Stroustrup. The current standard can be ordered from DIN (Deutsche Institut für Normung).

The following sections describe the vendor-specific and implementation-defined language features of C++. They are intended as a supplement to the C++ language definitions given in the manuals.
