C program is standard C++ program?

I want if "a C program is a standard C++ program, but not vice versa"
is a correct statement?

In a C++ program, we can use standard C libraries. However, we cannot
use C++ libraries inside C program.

Please advise. thanks!!

This has no effect on a C compiler, which by convention does not define
the __cplusplus macro, but signals to a C++ compiler that the
identifiers declared within are to be linked with a C object file.


<nit size=microscopi c> No longer just convention. C99 6.10.8p5
specifies that a conforming C does not define __cplusplus . </>

I like to have my program (running on my home machine) email me (wherever I am) whenever it reaches a certain mile-stone (finishes a phase of the simulation or runs into an interesting path in the simulation). I just like add the feature so it can email me the partial results. Is there a source code for something like this I can add to my program? Do I need an SMTP server code or can I use my current SMTP ISP smtp server to email myself?...

I am learning C, having fun with strings & pointers at the moment! The following program is my solution to an exercise to take an input, strip the first word, and output the rest. It works fine when you give it 2 or more words, but when there's only 1 word the results vary depending on whether it's on Windows or Linux: under MSVC it displays no output (as it should); under gcc/Linux it instead gives "Segmentation fault". Any ideas...

Hi all. I've installed Bloodshed Dev-C++ on a Windows 2000 SP4 machine. I'm using MinGW 3.4.2. I'd like to temporarily disable standard functions to write to stderr, i.e. for instance redirect stderr to a temporary file (or /dev/null but is there an equivalent under Windows? Is it "nul:") and then to *restore* the default stderr so that standard library functions that write to stderr produce output again.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
