|
|||
|
|
representation of the object declaration as it appears in the
|
|||
|
|
source. Mangled names are used because C++ allows multiple objects to have
|
|||
|
|
the same name, as long as they are distinguishable in some other way, such
|
|||
|
|
as by having different parameter types. Thus, the internal name must have
|
|||
|
|
that additional information embedded in it, using the limited character set
|
|||
|
|
allowed by most linkers. For instance, one popular compiler encodes the
|
|||
|
|
standard library function declaration “<span class="quote">memchr(const
|
|||
|
|
void*,int,unsigned int)</span>” as “<span class="quote">@memchr$qpxviui</span>”.</p></dd><div class="navfooter"><hr/><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="mangle.html">Prev</a><EFBFBD></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="../M.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"><EFBFBD><a accesskey="n" href="mangler.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">mangle<EFBFBD></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"><EFBFBD>mangler</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
