I'm not advocating use of C, just pointing out a simpler way to check dependencies.
To answer your question though, the advantage of using C is certainly not the notorious bad-habits standard library. C is fun and productive exactly where there's just you and some bits and bytes to bang around. Coding in the small. Not platforms and architectures.
- kazinator 10y agoYou can easily access external symbols in C without including a header. The external refs in an object file are the accurate info about what is referenced.
- jstimpfle 10y agoGranted. Just as you can easily corrupt memory. Just as you can statically link libc, without it showing up in the symbol table.
