My understanding was the the best practice is:

#if __cplusplus >= 202002L
// code
#endif

However, it does not work, even though i do compile with -std=c++20.

Also the output of g++ -x c++ -std=c++20 -dM -E - </dev/null | grep __cplusplus is

#define __cplusplus 201709L

Which really confuses me, because i assumed that the correct define for c++17 is 201703L

Am i missing something?

P.S.
