Visual C++沒事別啓用/Za編譯選項

Visual C++對於C++標準的支持不是很完善好像是欽定了的。MS還特地在這裏說了些非標準行爲[1]以及擴展行爲[2]。這就不可避免地會讓處女座程序猿感到難受（我不是處女座）。因此，通過一番google/bing以後，你會找到一個很好的VC++編譯選項/Za。

咱們先來看看/Za選項是什麼意思：

The /Za compiler option emits an error for language constructs that are not compatible with ANSI C89 or ISO C++11.

We recommend that you disable language extensions by specifying the /Za option if you plan to port your program to other environments. When /Za is specified, the compiler treats Microsoft extended keywords as simple identifiers, disables the other Microsoft extensions, and automatically defines the __STDC__ predefined macro for C programs.

說得和真的同樣，讓人很是激動，一顆賽艇。

固然了，事實並不是你想得那麼完美[手動滑稽.gif]。

你include <windows.h>試一下[蜜汁微笑.avi]。

你要還不死心，看這裏。

When I encountered that bug (valid code like vector<unique_ptr> triggers compiler errors under /Za; the problem is that /Za performs an elided-copy-constructor accessibility check during move construction when no copy constructor is being called even theoretically), I asked for a fix, but unfortunately the resolution was "won't fix forever". I can confirm that it will not be fixed in VC10 SP1 RTW, and that there are currently no plans to fix it in VC11.

As a result, during VC10's development we stopped testing our C++ Standard Library implementation under /Za, and I no longer consider it to be a supported switch. (We support almost all switches, including the headache-inducing ones like /Gr and /Gz, but we have to draw the line when valid code is broken.)

I also asked for /Za to be removed from VC11, but that won't happen either. (However, I was told that /Wp64, which was deprecated in VC9 and VC10, will be removed from VC11. I don't think that's happened yet so I'll have to ping a compiler dev about it. /Wp64 has always been broken - it suffers from false positives and false negatives and interacts extremely badly with templates - and it has been completely superseded by the existence of x64-targeting compilers.)

補充說明：

【2017/8/10】正確的姿式應該是使用/Zc。
