The Underhanded C Contest was a programming contest to turn out code that is malicious, but passes a rigorous inspection, and looks like an honest mistake even if discovered. The contest rules define a task, and a malicious component. Entries must perform the task in a malicious manner as defined by the contest, and hide the malice.
In DOS systems, file directory entries include a Hidden file attribute which is manipulated using the attrib command. Using the command line command dir /ah displays the files with the Hidden attribute. In addition, there is a System file attribute that can be set on a file, which also causes the file to be hidden in directory listings.
The C preprocessor processes inclusion directives like #include "foo.h" to include "foo.h" and transcludes the code of that file into a copy of the main file often called the translation unit. However, if an #include directive for a given file appears multiple times during compilation, the code will effectively be duplicated in that file.
The International Obfuscated C Code Contest (abbreviated IOCCC) is a computer programming contest for code written in C that is the most creatively obfuscated. Held semi-annually, it is described as "celebrating [C's] syntactical opaqueness". [1] The winning code for the 27th contest, held in 2020, was released in July 2020. [2]
Steganographic file systems are a kind of file system first proposed by Ross Anderson, Roger Needham, and Adi Shamir.Their paper proposed two main methods of hiding data: in a series of fixed size files originally consisting of random bits on top of which 'vectors' could be superimposed in such a way as to allow levels of security to decrypt all lower levels but not even know of the existence ...
The C++ standard library is similar, but the declarations may be provided by the compiler without reading an actual file. C standard header files are named with a .h file name extension, as in #include <stdio.h>. Typically, custom C header files have the same extension. Custom C++ header files tend to have more variety of extensions, including ...

Exception swallowing can also happen if the exception is handled and rethrown as a different exception, discarding the original exception and all its context.
