Arrays as parameters

[ada_student]

I see no compilation errors even in C++ 98 compilation mode:

extern void
copy_array2(int dest[4][5], const int src[4][5])
{
// ...
}

extern void
copy_array(int dest[][5], const int src[][5])
{
// ...
}

Shouldnt there be a compile-time error(duplicate declarations)?

Also, what is the type of int dest[][5]?

Oops! I was too eager in hitting the post message.
I see that the names are different. Sorry about that!

Using the same names, gives me a redefinition error.

Sorry again!
