Could you expand on this perhaps? The book sounded pretty compelling up until I read that.
- meaty 14y agoMainly GCC specific features. No C99 there. The book should have the word "GNU" wedged in it. I'd like to have seen some discussion of llvm/clang as well.
- snogglethorpe 14y agoclang and gcc are not very different from a user's point of view—clang deliberately supports a large number of gcc extensions and command-line options. For that matter, so do other C compilers (e.g. the EDG front-end, used by the intel C compiler). So really these days "gcc" is as much a common dialect of C as it is a particular compiler.
