#83952 - it's just static Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Hmmm!
According to this,, a static function is visible only to other functions in the same file. Of course, I would assume that you wouldn't put the function declaration in a header file, because then it could be used by functions outside the scope of the file. In other words, it's a way of hiding the functions from the outside world. PC-LINT probably noticed that the functions were never used outside of their file and demanded the static modifier. Does PC-LINT complain about globals declared in a file not being declared as static? I do this a lot -- it's kind of like making a class' private member variables, if one considers the file to be the "class" and the non-static functions to be public methods. -a |
