Severity of compiler diagnostic messages

Diagnostic messages have an associated severity. See Table 20.

Table 20. Severity of diagnostic messages

SeverityDescription
Internal fault

Internal faults indicate an internal problem with the compiler. Contact your supplier with feedback.

Error

Errors indicate problems that cause the compilation to stop. These errors include command line errors, internal errors, missing include files, and violations in the syntactic or semantic rules of the C or C++ language. If multiple source files are specified, no further source files are compiled.

Warning

Warnings indicate unusual conditions in your code that might indicate a problem. Compilation continues, and object code is generated unless any further problems with an Error severity are detected.

Remark

Remarks indicate common, but sometimes unconventional, use of C or C++. These diagnostics are not displayed by default. Compilation continues, and object code is generated unless any further problems with an Error severity are detected.
