Recent versions of Visual Studio have seen improving support for C99. Does the latest version, VS2017, now support all of C99?
If not, what features of C99 are still missing?
回答1:
No.

The compiler’s support for C99 Preprocessor rules is incomplete in Visual Studio 2017. Variadic macros are supported, but there are many bugs in the preprocessor’s behavior.

The Visual C++ C compiler is generally compatible with the ISO C99 standard, but not strictly compliant. In most cases, portable C code will compile and run as expected. Visual C++ does not support most of the changes in ISO C11. Certain library functions and POSIX function names are deprecated by the Visual C++ compiler. The functions are supported, but the preferred names have changed. For more information, see Security Features in the CRT and Compiler Warning (level 3) C4996.
Remember that Visual C++ is ultimately a C++ implementation and not a true C environment. The compatibility is a nice side-effect of C and C++’s shared heritage but despite superficial syntactical similarities the two are very different languages.
回答2:
Largely, yes, although some core language features are implemented non-compliantly (some with bugs and some are missing)
- Variable Length Arrays are not supported (although these are now officially optional)
restrictqualifier is not supported,__restrictis supported instead, but it is not exactly the same- Top-level qualifiers in array declarations in function parameters are not supported (e.g.
void foo(int a[const])) as well as keywordstaticin the same context
However, each new version of Visual Studio brings improvements in C99 support, so this work is not frozen apparently.
Answer to this question from 2015 has a number of relevant links, including MS roadmap for C support.
