C++ Compiler with GCC 9.2
This page provides an online C++ compiler powered specifically by GCC 9.2, released in 2019. GCC 9.2 includes full C++17 support with improvements to diagnostics, code generation, and standard library features. It is a popular compiler version in production environments and is widely used in competitive programming, academic coursework, and systems development.
Using this compiler online means you get an identical environment to a locally installed GCC 9.2, without any installation, path configuration, or compatibility issues. Write your code, click Run, and see the result immediately.
What's New in GCC 9?
GCC 9 introduced several important improvements over earlier versions:
- Full C++17 support: Structured bindings,
if constexpr, fold expressions,std::optional,std::variant, and more are fully supported. - Improved diagnostics: Better error messages with more context, type information, and fix-it hints help you understand and resolve issues faster.
- Interprocedural optimisations: Enhanced whole-program analysis produces faster compiled code with better inlining and dead-code elimination.
- Address sanitiser improvements: Better detection of memory safety errors during development.
- OpenMP 5.0 support: Improved support for parallel programming on multi-core processors.
C++ GCC 9.2 Code Examples
Structured Bindings (C++17)
#include <iostream>
#include <map>
using namespace std;
int main() {
map<string, int> scores = {{"Alice", 95}, {"Bob", 87}, {"Carol", 92}};
for (auto& [name, score] : scores) {
cout << name << ": " << score << "\n";
}
return 0;
}
std::optional (C++17)
#include <iostream>
#include <optional>
using namespace std;
optional<int> divide(int a, int b) {
if (b == 0) return nullopt;
return a / b;
}
int main() {
auto result = divide(10, 2);
if (result) {
cout << "Result: " << *result << "\n";
} else {
cout << "Division by zero.\n";
}
return 0;
}
Lambda Expressions
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int main() {
vector<int> v = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6};
int threshold = 3;
auto it = remove_if(v.begin(), v.end(),
[threshold](int x) { return x <= threshold; });
v.erase(it, v.end());
for (int x : v) cout << x << " ";
cout << "\n";
return 0;
}
About C++ and GCC in Competitive Programming
GCC 9.2 with C++17 is the standard compiler used on most competitive programming platforms including Codeforces, LeetCode, and AtCoder. Using this online compiler lets you write, test, and refine your solutions in an environment that closely matches what the judges use — without needing to install anything locally. The identical compiler behaviour means fewer surprises when submitting your solution. For foundational C skills, our online C compiler covers the language essentials that all C++ builds on.

GCC 9.2 (released September 2019) is a specific release of the GNU Compiler Collection that delivered major improvements in C++ 17 standard library completeness, better error messages, improved coroutine support (via an experimental flag), and significant optimisation improvements over GCC 8.x. Pinning to 9.2 gives you reproducible compilation behaviour matching many production Linux environments from 2019–2022.
GCC 9.2 fully supports C++ 11, C++ 14, and C++ 17. It has experimental support for some C++ 20 features via the -std=c++2a flag, including concepts (partial), ranges (partial), and calendar/timezone additions to <chrono>. For production code, use -std=c++17 for the most stable and complete feature set.
Yes, GCC 9.2 ships with libstdc++ 9.2 which has complete C++ 17 standard library support. This includes std::optional, std::variant, std::any, std::string_view, std::filesystem, parallel algorithms with execution policies, std::byte, mathematical special functions, and all other C++ 17 library additions. std::filesystem in particular became fully stable in GCC 9.
Yes. Structured bindings (auto [a, b] = pair), if constexpr for compile-time template branching, class template argument deduction (CTAD), fold expressions, and all other C++ 17 core language features are fully supported by GCC 9.2 with -std=c++17.
GCC 9 brought: significantly improved diagnostics with better error explanations and fix-it hints, full std::filesystem support, improved interprocedural optimisation (IPA), better link-time optimisation (LTO), more complete C++ 17 library coverage, and reduced compile times for template-heavy code. The jump from GCC 4.8 to GCC 9 is substantial in both features and code quality.
GCC 9.2 supports OpenMP 4.5 directives when compiled with the -fopenmp flag. However, in the sandboxed online execution environment, parallel thread execution may be restricted. You can write and compile OpenMP code — it will compile correctly — but thread-parallel execution results depend on the sandbox configuration.
GCC 9.2 and Clang 8/9 are broadly comparable in C++ 17 standard compliance. Clang historically produced friendlier error messages; GCC 9 significantly narrowed that gap with improved diagnostics. GCC tends to produce slightly faster executables for CPU-bound numeric code due to its optimiser; Clang compiles slightly faster. For learning and general use, the differences are irrelevant — both produce correct results.
Yes, it is an excellent choice. GCC 9.2 supports all of C++ 11, 14, and 17 with stable, production-quality implementations. The compiler gives clear error messages when you make type errors or misuse modern features like move semantics, smart pointers, or variadic templates. Its diagnostic hints actively teach you correct C++ patterns.
For performance testing use -O2 as your baseline — it enables the optimisations most production builds use. Use -O3 to test maximum throughput (enables vectorisation and more aggressive inlining). Add -march=native to allow CPU-specific instructions. Avoid -O3 for correctness testing of floating-point code, as it may reorder operations in ways that change rounding results.
Yes, completely free with no sign-up required. Write C++ code, click Run, and get output in seconds. The code runs in an isolated sandbox via the Judge0 API and is not stored permanently on our servers.
