<p>The implementation status for C99, C11, and C17 are currently under
investigation. Any proposal whose status in Clang is currently unknown
will be marked in <span class="unknown">magenta</span>.</p>
<p>The Clang community is continually striving to improve C standards
compliance between releases. We implement the resolution for defect
reports, but we do not currently track our DR status (help with
tracking DR status is appreciated).</p>
<p>The <a href="https://bugs.llvm.org/">LLVM bug tracker</a> contains a
Clang C component that tracks known bugs with Clang's language
conformance.</p>
<h2 id="c89">C89 implementation status</h2>
<p>Clang implements all of the ISO 9899:1990 (C89) standard.</p>
<p>You can use Clang in C89 mode with the <code>-std=c89</code> or <code>-std=c90</code> options.</p>
<h2 id="c99">C99 implementation status</h2>
<p>Clang implements a significant portion of the ISO 9899:1999 (C99) standard, but the status of individual proposals is still under investigation.</p>
<p>Note, the list of C99 features comes from the C99 committee draft. Not all C99 documents are publicly available, so the documents referenced in this section may be inaccurate, unknown, or not linked.</p>
<!-- http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n874.htm contains the
final editor's report of what's been added to C99, but it includes more
papers than are worth listing because it includes editorial and cleanup
proposals in addition to feature proposals. When a paper is not available,
I list the paper number from the editor's report, but do not hyperlink it.
When I can't map the feature back to a paper, I mark it as unknown. -->
<p>You can use Clang in C99 mode with the <code>-std=c99</code> option.</p>
