I'm also curious :)
I just tested, and the -Co (lowercase "o") enables overflow checking
by default (like "{$Q+}" in code),
https://github.com/michaliskambi/modern-pascal-introduction/wiki/What-are-range-and-overflow-checks-(and-errors)-in-Pascal
.
But -CO (uppercase "O") seems unrelated to it.
This example:
"""
{$mode objfpc}
uses SysUtils;
var
A: Int64;
begin
A := High(Int64) - 100;
A := A + 200;
Writeln('Result is ', A);
end.
"""
... behaves the same, regardless if it's compiled with "-CO" or not.
(Only "-Co" is relevant, controls do we make overflow check, as
expected.)
