Hello,
Is it possible to use va lists if i prefare to define
functions as following:
(won't compile)
void
die(file, line, fn, fmt, ...)
const char *file;
const int line;
const char *fn;
const char *fmt;
{
/* code */
}
ps. also how is such function definition called?
(when i do not write 'int f(int i) { }' but 'int f(i) int i; { }')
Thanks,
P.Krumins

No, variable-length argument lists and K&R-style function
declarations don't mix.

Typically "K&R-style function definitions", but the standard
calls them "function definitions with separate parameter
identifier and declaration lists".

A recent thread here discussed why using old-style function headers is a
bad idea. You can read that discussion here: http://groups.google.com/groups?thre...pamblocked.com

I have discovered a couple of problems with the way the universal
gateway code handles optional parameters and variable argument lists
in COM servers.
It appears to only be a problem when you use the custom interface.
What I found was that variable argument lists are not detected at
all. Instead they are just converted from SAFEARRAYs to a Python
list.

I'm trying to create a function that has at least 1 Argument but can also
contain any number of Arguments (except 0 because my function would have no
meaning for 0 argument).
The arguments passed to the function are strings or must be (automaticly
converted to a string e.g. the number 10 should become the string "10".
My problem is that I can only find samples and description of printf() like
functions where the optional arguments and...

Greetings everyone,
I wrote a function to learn about variable-length argument lists. I
wonder if there is a better way to detect the end of the argument list
than using a sentinel value like the one I am using (NULL in this
example) or an argument count parameter (ugh).
The following function concatenates a series of C-style strings. I am
aware of the fact that not allocating enough memory for `dst` results
in UB (gave me a...

Let's say we have a variable length argument list function like so:
unsigned GetAverage(unsigned a, unsigned b, ...);
I wonder does the compiler go through the code looking for invocations of
the function, and from there, treat it sort of like a template function?
For instance, if we had a template function like so:
template<class T>
T GetAverage(T a, T b);

I have some C functions (with variable length argument lists) that use
void pointers as arguments.
Is there a way to determine at runtime what type of parameter is
actually passed on to the function? PHP and my oldskool turbopascal
provide a typeof() function, but my C compiler (gcc 3.4.1) does not seem
to provide this function. Perhaps someone crafted a library with some
smart code able to inspect the variable passed to a certain...
