|
<h2 class="chapter">4 C Implementation-Defined Behavior</h2>
|
<a name="index-implementation_002ddefined-behavior_002c-C-language"></a>
|
|
<p>A conforming implementation of ISO C is required to document its
|
choice of behavior in each of the areas that are designated
|
“implementation defined”. The following lists all such areas,
|
along with the section numbers from the ISO/IEC 9899:1990, ISO/IEC
|
9899:1999 and ISO/IEC 9899:2011 standards. Some areas are only
|
implementation-defined in one version of the standard.
|
</p>
|
<p>Some choices depend on the externally determined ABI for the platform
|
(including standard character encodings) which GCC follows; these are
|
listed as “determined by ABI” below. See <a href="Compatibility.html#Compatibility">Binary
|
Compatibility</a>, and <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/readings.html">http://gcc.gnu.org/readings.html</a>. Some
|
choices are documented in the preprocessor manual.
|
See <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Implementation_002ddefined-behavior.html#Implementation_002ddefined-behavior">Implementation-defined
|
behavior</a> in <cite>The C Preprocessor</cite>. Some choices are made by the
|
library and operating system (or other environment when compiling for
|
a freestanding environment); refer to their documentation for details.
