That's debatable. [dcl.attr]/6 says Any attribute-token that is not recognized by the implementation is ignored. In general, implementations can still warn about pretty much whatever they please, especially considering that their default modes are not strictly conforming. The compilers we plan to support in Qt 6 do warn about unknown attributes, so the allowance point is kinda theoretical. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
