  2. Calling convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calling_convention

    Alternatively, arguments can be passed in registers. Function routines returned the result in ACC for real arguments, or in a memory location referred to as the Real Number Pseudo-Accumulator (FAC). Arguments and the return address were addressed using an offset to the IAR value stored in the first location of the subroutine.

  3. Variadic macro in the C preprocessor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variadic_macro_in_the_C...

    The __VA_OPT__ macro is replaced by its argument when arguments are present, and omitted otherwise. Common compilers also permit passing zero arguments before this addition, however. [4] [6] The C preprocessor rules prevent macro names in the argument of __VA_OPT__ from expanding recursively. It is possible to work around this limitation up to ...

  4. Argument-dependent name lookup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument-dependent_name_lookup

    In the C++ programming language, argument-dependent lookup (ADL), or argument-dependent name lookup, [1] applies to the lookup of an unqualified function name depending on the types of the arguments given to the function call. This behavior is also known as Koenig lookup, as it is often attributed to Andrew Koenig, though he is not its inventor ...

  5. Variadic template - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variadic_template

    The variadic template feature of C++ was designed by Douglas Gregor and Jaakko Järvi [1] [2] and was later standardized in C++11. Prior to C++11, templates (classes and functions) could only take a fixed number of arguments, which had to be specified when a template was first declared.

  6. Message passing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_passing

    In computer science, message passing is a technique for invoking behavior (i.e., running a program) on a computer.The invoking program sends a message to a process (which may be an actor or object) and relies on that process and its supporting infrastructure to then select and run some appropriate code.

  7. stdarg.h - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stdarg.h

    stdarg.h is a header in the C standard library of the C programming language that allows functions to accept an indefinite number of arguments. [1] It provides facilities for stepping through a list of function arguments of unknown number and type.

  8. Type signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_signature

    A function signature consists of the function prototype. It specifies the general information about a function like the name, scope and parameters. Many programming languages use name mangling in order to pass along more semantic information from the compilers to the linkers. In addition to mangling, there is an excess of information in a ...

  9. x86 calling conventions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_calling_conventions

    Arguments assigned to the stack are pushed from right to left. Names are mangled by adding a suffixed underscore. Variadic functions fall back to the Watcom stack based calling convention. The Watcom C/C++ compiler also uses the #pragma aux [20] directive that allows the user to specify their own calling convention. As its manual states, "Very ...
