 # What's new for C++ in Visual Studio 2022
 
 Visual Studio 2022 brings many updates and fixes to the Microsoft C++ environment. We've added features and fixed many bugs and issues in the compiler and tools. The Visual Studio IDE also offers significant improvements in performance and productivity, and now runs natively as a 64-bit application.
 
 For more information on what's new in all of Visual Studio, see [What's new in Visual Studio 2022](/visualstudio/ide/whats-new-visual-studio-2022?view=vs-2022&preserve-view=true). For information about what's new in the C++ docs, see [Microsoft C++ docs: What's new](./whats-new-cpp-docs.md)

 - `std::move`, `std::forward`, `std::move_if_noexcept`, and `std::forward_like` now don't produce function calls in generated code, even in debug mode. This change avoids named casts causing unnecessary overhead in debug builds. `/permissive-` (or an option that implies it, such as `/std:c++20` or `std:c++latest`) is required.
 
-- Added [`[[msvc::intrinsic]]`](../cpp/attributes.md#msvcintrinsic) to support the above item. You can apply this attribute to non-recursive functions consisting of a single cast, which take only one parameter.

-- IntelliSense now respects the order of pre-included headers when one is a PCH. Previously, when a PCH was used via **`/Yu`** and force-included via **`/FI`**, IntelliSense would always process it first, before any other headers included via **`/FI`**. This behavior didn't match the build behavior. With this change, **`/FI`** headers are processed in the order they're specified.
