err... the C++ standard makes that pretty clear too.which makes it perfectly clear that an underscore followed by an upper case letter is reserved in each and every situation, regardless of scope
"... or begins with an underscore followed by an uppercase letter (2.11) is reserved to the implementation for any use."
Yeah, but I had to ask because I dont want to go around claiming the wrong thing.the debate is completely about interpretation and theory because all of us avoid leading underscores in our code
Well, if we can find out from the committee(s) involved...It's too bad we can't grab the person who wrote that rule and ask what was really meant just for peace of mind.
