I've just started playing around with a debugger and I've noticed that it c++ does function calls like this:
00401052 call @ILT+0(function1) (00401005)
@ILT+0(?function1@@YAXXZ):
00401005 jmp function1 (004010a0)
I was just wondering what the point of this is, i believe its called a jump table or something. Also what does "ILT" mean.
Thanks,
Simon
It is called 'Name Mangling'.
C++ compiler has to do it because to provide "Function Overloading". C++ allows different function having same names. So compile convert it to such above mentioned(in above post) names to identify each fuctions differently
Visual C++ 6 and its just a completely normal function call from main(). I was just wondering why it calls the function in such an indirect way.

Hey.....man, sorry to say that I can't understand what do you want to say ?
Can you please explain agian?
ILT is the "Incremental Link Table" - you get this extra level of indirection when you have the "Link Incremantally" option set in the project settings. You won't get this in release builds or where you have this feature turned off.
You are both as bad as each other :pQuote:
