Deprecations
============
The following deprecated items are scheduled for future removal:
C++11 compiler support
Verilator currently requires C++11 or newer compilers. Verilator will
require C++14 or newer compilers for both compiling Verilator and
compiling Verilated models no sooner than January 2023.
Verilated_heavy.h
The legacy "verilated_heavy.h" include was replaced with just including
"verilated.h". Verilated_heavy.h is planned for removal no sooner than
July 2022.
Option `--cdc`
The experimental `--cdc` option is believed to be generally unused and is
planned for removal no sooner than January 2023.
Option `-O<letter>`
The debug `-O<letter>` options have been replaced with
`-fno-<optimization>` debug options to match GCC. The old options are
planned for removal no sooner than June 2023.
Option `--prof-threads`
The `--prof-threads` option has been superseded by the `--prof-exec` and
`--prof-pgo` options and is planned for removal no sooner than April 2023.
Verilated model options `+verilator+prof+threads+*`
The `+verilator+prof+threads+start`, `+verilator+prof+threads+window` and
`+verilator+prof+threads+file` options have been superseded by the
`+verilator+prof+exec+start`, `+verilator+prof+exec+window` and
`+verilator+prof+exec+file` options respectively and are planned for removal
no sooner than April 2023.
