Remarks

shared, which is in effect if the default clause is not specified, means that any variable in a parallel region will be treated as if it were specified with the shared clause. none means that any variables used in a parallel region that are not scoped with the private, shared, reduction, firstprivate, or lastprivate clause will cause a compiler error.

default applies to the following directives:

• parallel

• for

• sections
