Compiler Warnings That Are Off by Default

The compiler includes warnings that are turned off by default because most users don't want to see them. However, you can enable these warnings by using one of the following options.

  • #pragma warning(default : warning_number )
    The specified warning (warning_number) is enabled at its default level. Documentation for the warning contains the default level of the warning.

  • #pragma warning( warning_level : warning_number )
    The specified warning (warning_number) is enabled at the specified level (warning_level).

  • /Wall
    /Wall enables all warnings that are off by default.

The following warnings are turned off by default.

C4710 (level 4)

'function': function not inlined

C4738 (level 3)

storing 32-bit float result in memory, possible loss of performance
