|
|
These macros provide more specialized features which are not needed so often
|
|
by application programmers.

<!-- ##### MACRO G_INLINE_FUNC ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Used to declare inline functions. If inline functions are not supported on
|
|
the particular platform, the macro evaluates to the empty string.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_STMT_START ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Used within multi-statement macros so that they can be used in places where
|
|
only one statement is expected by the compiler.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_STMT_END ##### -->
|
|
<para>

Portable way to copy <type>va_list</type> variables.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<!-- # Unused Parameters # -->
|

|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_EXTENSION ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to "__extension__" when GNU C is used as the compiler.
|
|
This simply tells GNU C not to warn about the following non-standard code
|
|
when compiling with the -pedantic option.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_CONST ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to the GNU C const function attribute if the compiler is GNU C.
|
|
This enables optimization of the function.
|
|
See the GNU C documentation for details.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_NORETURN ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to the GNU C noreturn function attribute if the compiler is GNU C.
|
|
It is used for declaring functions which never return.
|
|
It enables optimization of the function, and avoids possible compiler
|
|
warnings. See the GNU C documentation for details.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_UNUSED ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to the GNU C unused function attribute if the compiler is GNU C.
|
|
It is used for declaring functions which may never be used.
|
|
It avoids possible compiler warnings. See the GNU C documentation for details.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_PURE ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_PRINTF ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to the GNU C format function attribute if the compiler is GNU C.
|
|
This is used for declaring functions which take a variable number of
|
|
arguments, with the same syntax as <function>printf()</function>.
|
|
It allows the compiler to type-check the arguments passed to the function.
|
|
See the GNU C documentation for details.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
@format_idx: the index of the argument corresponding to the format string.
|
|
(The arguments are numbered from 1).
|
|
@arg_idx: the index of the first of the format arguments.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_SCANF ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to the GNU C format function attribute if the compiler is GNU C.
|
|
This is used for declaring functions which take a variable number of
|
|
arguments, with the same syntax as <function>scanf()</function>.
|
|
It allows the compiler to type-check the arguments passed to the function.
|
|
See the GNU C documentation for details.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
@format_idx: the index of the argument corresponding to the format string.
|
|
(The arguments are numbered from 1).
|
|
@arg_idx: the index of the first of the format arguments.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_FORMAT ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to the GNU C format_arg function attribute if the compiler is GNU C.
|
|
This is used for declaring functions which take a variable number of
|
|
parameters, like <function>printf()</function> and
|
|
<function>scanf()</function>. See the GNU C documentation for details.
|
|
|
|
FIXME: I can't find this in my GNU C documentation. Take out?
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
@arg_idx: the index of the argument.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_FUNCTION ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to the GNU C __FUNCTION__ variable if the compiler is GNU C,
|
|
or "" if it isn't.
|
|
The GNU C __FUNCTION__ variable contains the name of the current function.
|
|
See the GNU C documentation for details.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### MACRO G_GNUC_PRETTY_FUNCTION ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Expands to the GNU C __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ variable if the compiler is GNU C,
|
|
or "" if it isn't.
|
|
The GNU C __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ variable contains the name of the current
|
|
function. For a C program this is the same as the __FUNCTION__ variable
|
|
but for C++ it also includes extra information such as the class
|
|
and function prototype. See the GNU C documentation for details.

<!-- ##### MACRO G_GINT16_FORMAT ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
This is the platform dependent conversion specifier for scanning and
|
|
printing values of type #gint16. It is a string literal, but doesn't
|
|
include the percent-sign, such that you can add precision and length
|
|
modifiers between percent-sign and conversion specifier.
