[QUOTE="James Kuyper, post: 5154595"] <nit-pick> Some address constants (namely, null pointers) can be "An _address constant_ is a null pointer, a pointer to an lvalue designating an object of static storage duration, or a pointer to a function designator; ..." (6.6p9). The phrase "address constant" is italicised, indicating that this sentence constitutes the definition of that phrase. .... In C, address constants are not required to be absolute, nor are they required to be relocatable - that's an implementation detail outside the scope of the C standard. I think it is - but "obvious" depends upon the reader. The C standard says otherwise. [/QUOTE]
