Phil Carmody a écrit :
This person then, calls a constant value "a fixed pointer". When I use
a call instruction, the offset to the start of the called function is
an immediate number embedded in the instruction stream. For this
person this is "a fixed pointer"...
When I write
int a = 543;
then, with the same logic, I am assigning a pointer to an integer,
since 543 is a "fixed pointer". Strange that the compiler doesn't
complain.
Then, (as always) this person starts with insults:
"You are making ASSumptions"
of course that is not an insult to anybody... just , well, just
the caps lock key stuck.

"Phil" is obviously clueless - a couple days ago he showed us all that
he doesn't know what a heap is, now we learn that he's completely
ignorant about function pointers too.
All Carmodey brings to this group is a sycophantic blind support for
Heathfield, and a lot of bile directed against anyone and everyone who
dares to point out how inadequate his purported knowledge of C is.

Direct function calls through fixed pointers can indeed often be faster
than calls via function pointers.
But where did he mention the former? Message-id and line number please.
Maybe you're too busy making ASSumptions.
