<p>I see the theoretical problem, but how could this ever be a problem in practice?<br />
On Unix all compilers support the same syntax (<tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">__attribute__ ((__deprecated__))</tt>), so you'd have to be on Windows, build a library with mingw, and then try to use it with MSVC, or vice-versa? I wonder if this even works. AFAIK it doesn't (hence the compiler-specific binary installers for Qt, for instance).</p>
<p>Oh and if C++14 support is enabled, we could use <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">[[deprecated("use foo instead")]]</tt> which is standard and portable :-)<br />
