const has internal linkage in C++, but external linkage in C.
Am I right ?
But, linker reports multiply-defined error if the
following header is included in multiple .cpp files.
// test_const.h
#ifndef HEADER_TEST
#define HEADER_TEST

Hello everyone,
As far as I understand, the 'inline' keyword is a hint for the compiler
to consider the function in question as a candidate for inlining, yes?
What happens when a function with extern linkage is inlined? Should the
compiler still export the function?
Or is an inlined function implicitly static?

I have a question about mixing C and C++.
In a C++ translation unit, I want to define a function with internal
linkage and C calling convention. Here's a sample of what I want to do:
// main.cpp
// This is defined in a C module
extern "C" void fake_qsort(void*, std::size_t, std::size_t,
int (*compare)(const void*, const void*));

Hi all,
I am reading the book "C How to Program" and in the chapter where it
discuss scope rule, it says there are four scopes for a variable:
function scope
file scope
block scope
function-prototype scope

do static and inline functions or members have internal linkage? I have
been reading this newsgroup on google and found conflicting ideas. Can
someone please help me understand why in some places inline may have
external linkage while in others it has internal (from what I have read
in comments by people). Are there any (other) places where linkage is
ambiguous?

there are two passages in this paragraph i can't fully understand:
1) "If the declaration of an identifier for an object or a function
contains the storage-class specifier extern , the identifier has the
same linkage as any visible declaration of the identifier with file
scope. If there is no visible declaration with file scope, the
identifier has external...

Dear Group,
The book of Bjarne Stroustrup in chapter 5.4.4 says the following
"The word static is one of the most overused words in C and C++. For
static data members it has both of the common meanings: static as in
"statically allocated" as opposed to on the stack or on the free store
and static as in "with restricted visibility" as opposed to with
external linkage. For member functions, static has the second
meaning."

Hi everyone,
AFAIK external linkage allows you to refer to variables/functions
outside of the current translation unit. A variable in an unnamed
namespace is similar to declaring a static variable, but according to
the standard there is a difference:
"While this is essentially true in practical effect, there are subtle
differences. Using static as shown here causes "i" to have internal

Hello,
To learn the details of C, I've build the following example,
could you check if it is correct and if it miss some important
cases?
Are there some useful (real cases) examples of:
- "function prototype scope" for structures and unions?
- "extern" for internal linkage ?

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.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
