Hi, all.
I know this is not standard C, but I see the word cdecl used as a type
qualifier (?) in external declarations - including the standard
headers - and I'd like to know what it means (and how they it's used).
It is, as far as I know, an extension to std C by several compilers.
(Some use __cdecl instead, which is allowed by the standard.)
This may be off-topic on clc because it's not standard, but I believe
an extension that is common to many compilers isn't so far off the
mark. I apologize if I'm wrong on that point.
