Neal) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc Subject: What is __P() for? Date: 26 Nov 1995 01:02:04 GMT Organization: North Carolina State University Lines: 15 Message-ID: <498eac$2gm@taco.cc.ncsu.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: crazytrain.eos.ncsu.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [UNIX 1.3 950824BETA PL0] What is the purpose of this: int __P(functname(int arg)); (Did I do that right?) What is the point? Doesn't it just get converted by the preprocessor into (funct...) anyway? I think this has something to do with ANSI C, but what is the story behind it? -- XCOMM -------------------------------------------------------- XCOMM Kevin P.
