Hi All, I want to know which C / C++ standard my gcc is supported, Is there any method to find ? >From below site, they say C standard is ‘gnu90’, and C++ standard is ‘gnu++98’. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Standards.html Is it applicable to all gcc versions currently available? If so,how can i check it. I try using below method [naveen@localhost ~]$ gcc -std=gnu99 test1.c -v Using built-in specs.
