|
<p>The GNU compiler provides these extensions to the C++ language (and you
|
can also use most of the C language extensions in your C++ programs). If you
|
want to write code that checks whether these features are available, you can
|
test for the GNU compiler the same way as for C programs: check for a
|
predefined macro <code>__GNUC__</code>. You can also use <code>__GNUG__</code> to
|
test specifically for GNU C++ (see <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Common-Predefined-Macros.html#Common-Predefined-Macros">Predefined Macros</a> in <cite>The GNU C Preprocessor</cite>).
