Yes, but not in standard C. Try a Linux group, or comp.unix.progr ammer.

Yes: man dladdr. You'll probably need to give gcc the -rdynamic flag to
get the linker to export a full symbol table.

Hi,
You can print the function pointers address using %pf and then look
up for the same in the object table given by nm.

Indeed.

Except when the name is not there. Ask in a Linux or Unix group for why
it might not be there on a Linux or Unix like system.

"%pf"? Is this like the "%du" from a few days ago?
As far as I know, there is no printf() conversion specifier
for function pointers. If there were one, it could not be "%pf",
nor "%fp" for that matter.

Two words: lookup table. Make a table of function names and their
addresses. Find a function pointer that matches the one you are
looking for, then use the corresponding name. It's very portable.
It also requires you to have a list of functions that are of interest
to make the table.
There are some system-specific ways to access symbols in an executable.
This is problematic because (1) there is no guaranteed way to find
the path of the running executable (some versions of Linux provide
a way to open it anyway), and (2) the executable, especially if
static-linked, might not *HAVE* any symbols. If it's code you are
compiling, you can usually arrange to keep the symbols.

Well, not prior to C99. Since then, there's:
"6.4.2.2 Predefined identifiers
Semantics
1 The identifier _ _func_ _ shall be implicitly declared by the
translator as if, immediately following the opening brace of each
function definition, the declaration
static const char _ _func_ _[] = "function-name";
appeared, where function-name is the name of the lexically-enclosing
function.
2 This name is encoded as if the implicit declaration had been written
in the source character set and then translated into the execution
character set as indicated in translation phase 5."
Of course C99 implementations are pretty rare.

Hello lads,
I'd like to do the following in C:
1. The user writes a function with predefined arguments and return value in a separate file.
2. The program is compiled as my written 'main' program and the file containing the user function included.
3. When the program is invoked, the user is asked how his function is named (f.e. function1).
4. The 'main' program calls and executes the user function.
The problem is, how can I cast the...

Almost.
A function name *is* a pointer-to-function. You can do two things with it -
copy it (assign its value to an object of function pointer type, with a
cast if necessary but preferably to one of the /right/ function pointer

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.
