Hi Max,

Static variables are initialized to zero.

Stack variables are initialized to garbage.

Heap variables are initialized to garbage (although the original extant from the OS used by the heap is initially initialized to zero, in all modern OS's).

No compiler option needed, it's automatic.

HTH,
