Rightly so? Only according you your solipsistic view of what should be
"topical" in clc. As this thread demonstrates, this stupid insistence of

other groups only causes trouble, difficulty and confusion, and wastes

The question was topical both in clc (which discusses all of C, not just
the subset defined by the ISO standard) and in cup. The OP chose to post

The question was *not* topical in comp.lang.c, as fopen64() is *not*
part of C. fopen64() is an API provided on -some- operating systems
in -some- of their versions, and merely happens to be -callable- from
C (amongst other languages) on those systems.
The fact that a routine can be successfully called from C does not
render questions about the purpose or usage of the routine topical
for comp.lang.c: to claim otherwise is to claim as topical
in comp.lang.c any routine which can be called from C in at least
one implementation (and conversely, would leave as non-topical
only routines which can be proven to -never- be callable from C
in -any- implementations .)

That's like arguing that this question would be topical in
alt.language.en glish because it's written in English. To be topical in

What utter nonsense. 99% of the questions are about solving problems
using the C language , NOT the C language itself.

Regardless of what the questions are actually about, they should be
about solving problems using the C language, not about using
extensions provided by various implementations . And just so we all
discuss the same language is, there happens to be standard that
defines it.

Does it mean "(sizeof(int))* (p)" or "sizeof( (int)(*p) )" ?
According to my analysis, operator sizeof, (type) and * have the same
precedence, and they combine from right to left. Then this expression should
equal to "sizeof( (int)(*p) )", but the compiler does NOT think so. Why?
Can anyone help me? Thanks.
Best regards.

Some of the classes in the framework are marked as thread-safe in the

What exactly does this mean? Does this mean that if I call a shared

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
