  2. Compatibility of C and C++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_of_C_and_C++

    C++ is also more strict in conversions to enums: ints cannot be implicitly converted to enums as in C. Also, enumeration constants (enum enumerators) are always of type int in C, whereas they are distinct types in C++ and may have a size different from that of int. [needs update] In C++ a const variable must be initialized; in C this is not ...

  3. External variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_variable

    Or there must be a declaration of the variable, with the keyword extern, inside the function. The static keyword (static and extern are mutually exclusive), applied to the definition of an external variable, changes this a bit: the variable can only be accessed by the functions in the same module where it was defined. But it is possible for a ...

  4. Forward declaration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_declaration

    C++ generally prohibits forward references, but they are allowed in the special case of class members. Since the member function accessor cannot be compiled until the compiler knows the type of the member variable myValue, it is the compiler's responsibility to remember the definition of accessor until it sees myValue's declaration.

  5. C Sharp syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_Sharp_syntax

    const - Specifies that a variable is a constant value that has to be initialized when it gets declared. event - Declares an event. extern - Specifies that a method signature without a body uses a DLL-import. override - Specifies that a method or property declaration is an override of a virtual member or an implementation of a member of an ...

  6. Linkage (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linkage_(software)

    This is also valid in C++. (C++ 98/03 deprecated this usage in favor of anonymous namespaces, but is no longer deprecated in C++ 11.) Also, C++ implicitly treats any const namespace-scope variable as having internal linkage unless it is explicitly declared extern, unlike C. A name's linkage is related to, but distinct from, its scope. The scope ...

  7. Declaration (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_(computer...

    While a variable or function may be declared many times, it is typically defined once (in C++, this is known as the One Definition Rule or ODR). Dynamic languages such as JavaScript or Python generally allow functions to be redefined, that is, re-bound; a function is a variable much like any other, with a name and a value (the definition).

  8. stdarg.h - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stdarg.h

    stdarg.h is a header in the C standard library of the C programming language that allows functions to accept an indefinite number of arguments. [1] It provides facilities for stepping through a list of function arguments of unknown number and type. C++ provides this functionality in the header cstdarg.

  9. Name mangling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling

    32-bit compilers emit, respectively: _f _g@4 @h@4 In the stdcall and fastcall mangling schemes, the function is encoded as _name@X and @name@X respectively, where X is the number of bytes, in decimal, of the argument(s) in the parameter list (including those passed in registers, for fastcall).
