Regarding Attributes

[shwetha_siddu]

Dear All,

What is the wrong with my code...

#include "stdio.h"
int i=0;
void init()_attribute_((constructor));
void deinit()_attribute_((destructor));
void init()
{
i=10;
printf("init:i=%d", i);
}

void deinit()
{
i=0;
printf("deinit:i=%d\n",i);
return 0;
}

int main()
{
 i=i*2;
 printf("main i=%d\n", i);
 return 0;
 }

i am getting two error as follows

\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\MyProjects\eewrew\eewrew.cpp(7) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier '__attribute__'
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\MyProjects\eewrew\eewrew.cpp(7) : fatal error C1004: unexpected end of file found

Thanks for your help

This "#include "stdio.h""
This "void init()_attribute_((constructor));"
and this "void deinit()_attribute_((destructor));"

Hello could you explain me better way..i don't find any errors in these declarations...
you mean attrubutes needed header file separately....

1. __attribute__ is a GCC specific extension. It simply WILL NOT WORK with a microsoft compiler.

2. You're using a C++ compiler to compile your C code. Rename your source files to have a .c extension.

Thanks for your reply

Is there any way to achieve same thing in VC++ compiler?

Though compared to the range of features offered by gcc attributes, it's a pretty weak set.

Well i don't know what attributes are but im pretty sure they're not standard C. You're also meant to include stdio.h like this #include <stdio.h> not #include "stdio.h"
