Microsoft C/C++ compiler warnings C5200 through C5399

The articles in this section describe Microsoft C/C++ compiler warning messages C5200 through C5399.

Important

The Visual Studio compilers and build tools can report many kinds of errors and warnings. After an error or warning is found, the build tools may make assumptions about code intent and attempt to continue, so that more issues can be reported at the same time. If the tools make the wrong assumption, later errors or warnings may not apply to your project. When you correct issues in your project, always start with the first error or warning that's reported, and rebuild often. One fix may make many subsequent errors go away.

To get help on a particular diagnostic message in Visual Studio, select it in the Output window and press the F1 key. Visual Studio opens the documentation page for that error, if one exists. You can also use the search tool at the top of the page to find articles about specific errors or warnings. Or, browse the list of errors and warnings by tool and type in the table of contents on this page.

Note

Not every Visual Studio error or warning is documented. In many cases, the diagnostic message provides all of the information that's available. If you landed on this page when you used F1 and you think the error or warning message needs additional explanation, let us know. You can use the feedback buttons on this page to raise a documentation issue on GitHub. If you think the error or warning is wrong, or you've found another problem with the toolset, report a product issue on the Developer Community site. You can also send feedback and enter bugs within the IDE. In Visual Studio, go to the menu bar and choose Help > Send Feedback > Report a Problem, or submit a suggestion by using Help > Send Feedback > Send a Suggestion. Some compiler error topics were created that are not emitted by the compiler and now redirect to this page instead.

You may find additional assistance for errors and warnings in Microsoft Learn Q&A forums. Or, search for the error or warning number on the Visual Studio C++ Developer Community site. You can also search Stack Overflow to find solutions.

Warning messages

Warning Message
Compiler warning (level 1) C5200 feature 'feature-name' requires compiler flag 'option-name'
Compiler warning (level 1) C5201 a module declaration can appear only at the start of a translation unit unless a global module fragment is used
Compiler warning (level 1) C5202 a global module fragment can only contain preprocessor directives
Compiler warning (level 1) C5203 a parenthesized declarator name after 'explicit' will be considered an explicit-specifier in C++20
Compiler warning (level 3, off) C5204 'type-name': class has virtual functions, but its trivial destructor is not virtual; instances of objects derived from this class may not be destructed correctly
Compiler warning (level 4) C5205 delete of an abstract class 'type-name' that has a non-virtual destructor results in undefined behavior
Compiler warning (level 3) C5206 deduced return types for coroutines is a non-standard extension
Compiler warning (level 1) C5207 the simple requirement asserts the validity of expression 'e->id'. Did you mean '{ e } -> id'? You can suppress the warning using '{ e->id }'
Compiler warning (level 1) C5208 unnamed class used in typedef name cannot declare members other than non-static data members, member enumerations, or member classes

Compiler warning (level 2, off) C5219 implicit conversion from 'type-1' to 'type-2', possible loss of data
Compiler warning (level 4, off) C5220 'name': a non-static data member with a volatile qualified type no longer implies that compiler generated copy/move constructors and copy/move assignment operators are not trivial

Compiler warning (level 4, off) C5259 'specialized-type': explicit specialization requires 'template <>'
Compiler warning (level 1) C5260 the constant variable 'variable-name' has internal linkage in an included header file context, but external linkage in imported header unit context; consider declaring it 'inline' as well if it will be shared across translation units, or 'static' to express intent to use it local to this translation unit
Compiler warning (level 2) C5261 no integer type can represent all enumerator values in enumeration 'enum-name'
Compiler warning (level 1, error, off) C5262 implicit fall-through occurs here; are you missing a break statement? Use [[fallthrough]] when a break statement is intentionally omitted between cases

Compiler warning (level 3) C5270 'value' is not allowed for option 'switch name'; allowed values are: value list
Compiler warning (level 4) C5271 previously imported assembly 'assembly1' has the same name as assembly 'assembly2' being imported. Is this intentional?
Compiler warning (level 1) C5272 throwing an object of non-copyable type 'type' is non-standard. If a copy is needed at runtime it will be made as if by memcpy.
Compiler warning (level 1) C5273 behavior change: _Alignas on anonymous type no longer ignored (promoted members will align)
Compiler warning (level 1) C5274 behavior change: _Alignas no longer applies to the type 'type' (only applies to declared data objects)
Compiler warning (Error) C5275 facade assembly 'name' being imported under '/clr'; missing option '/clr:netcore'?
