It does not necessarily fault declarations, providing they are unused.

Usage

Use this option to create an object file that is independent of wchar_t size.

Restrictions

If --no_wchar is specified:

• wchar_t fields in structure declarations are faulted by the compiler, regardless of whether or not the structure is used.

• wchar_t in a typedef is faulted by the compiler, regardless of whether or not the typedef is used.

Default

The default is --wchar.
