20 /* ANSI and traditional C compatibility macros
22 ANSI C is assumed if __STDC__ is #defined.
24 Macro ANSI C definition Traditional C definition
25 ----- ---- - ---------- ----------- - ----------
26 ANSI_PROTOTYPES 1 not defined
28 PTRCONST `void *const' `char *'
29 LONG_DOUBLE `long double' `double'
31 volatile not defined `'
33 VA_START(ap, var) va_start(ap, var) va_start(ap)
35 Note that it is safe to write "void foo();" indicating a function
36 with no return value, in all K+R compilers we have been able to test.
38 For declaring functions with prototypes, we also provide these:
41 -- for functions which take a fixed number of arguments. Use this
42 when declaring the function. When defining the function, write a
43 K+R style argument list. For example:
45 char *strcpy PARAMS ((char *dest, char *source));
54 VPARAMS ((prototype, ...))
55 -- for functions which take a variable number of arguments. Use
56 PARAMS to declare the function, VPARAMS to define it. For example:
58 int printf PARAMS ((const char *format, ...));
61 printf VPARAMS ((const char *format, ...))
66 For writing functions which take variable numbers of arguments, we
67 also provide the VA_OPEN, VA_CLOSE, and VA_FIXEDARG macros. These
68 hide the differences between K+R <varargs.h> and C89 <stdarg.h> more
69 thoroughly than the simple VA_START() macro mentioned above.
71 VA_OPEN and VA_CLOSE are used *instead of* va_start and va_end.
72 Immediately after VA_OPEN, put a sequence of VA_FIXEDARG calls
73 corresponding to the list of fixed arguments. Then use va_arg
74 normally to get the variable arguments, or pass your va_list object
75 around. You do not declare the va_list yourself; VA_OPEN does it
78 Here is a complete example:
81 printf VPARAMS ((const char *format, ...))
86 VA_FIXEDARG (ap, const char *, format);
88 result = vfprintf (stdout, format, ap);
95 You can declare variables either before or after the VA_OPEN,
96 VA_FIXEDARG sequence. Also, VA_OPEN and VA_CLOSE are the beginning
97 and end of a block. They must appear at the same nesting level,
98 and any variables declared after VA_OPEN go out of scope at
99 VA_CLOSE. Unfortunately, with a K+R compiler, that includes the
100 argument list. You can have multiple instances of VA_OPEN/VA_CLOSE
101 pairs in a single function in case you need to traverse the
102 argument list more than once.
104 For ease of writing code which uses GCC extensions but needs to be
105 portable to other compilers, we provide the GCC_VERSION macro that
106 simplifies testing __GNUC__ and __GNUC_MINOR__ together, and various
107 wrappers around __attribute__. Also, __extension__ will be #defined
108 to nothing if it doesn't work. See below.
110 This header also defines a lot of obsolete macros:
111 CONST, VOLATILE, SIGNED, PROTO, EXFUN, DEFUN, DEFUN_VOID,
112 AND, DOTS, NOARGS. Don't use them. */

122 older preprocessors. Thus we can't define something like this:

125 (__GNUC__ > (MAJOR) || (__GNUC__ == (MAJOR) && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= (MINOR)))
127 and then test "#if HAVE_GCC_VERSION(2,7)".
129 So instead we use the macro below and test it against specific values. */
