Specifiers
This topic describes the decl-specifiers (declaration specifiers) component of a declaration.
The following placeholders and language keywords are declaration specifiers:
storage-class-specifier
type-specifier
function-specifier
__declspec( extended-decl-modifier-seq )
Remarks
The decl-specifiers part of a declaration is the longest sequence of decl-specifiers that can be taken to mean a type name, not including the pointer or reference modifiers. The remainder of the declaration is the declarator, which includes the name introduced.
The following table lists four declarations, and then lists each declaration's decl-specifers and declarator component separately.
Declaration |
decl-specifiers |
declarator |
---|---|---|
char *lpszAppName; |
char |
*lpszAppName |
typedef char * LPSTR; |
char |
*LPSTR |
const int func1(); |
const int |
func1 |
volatile void *pvvObj; |
volatile void |
*pvvObj |
Because signed, unsigned, long, and short all imply int, a typedef name following one of these keywords is taken to be a member of declarator-list, not of decl-specifiers.
참고
Because a name can be redeclared, its interpretation is subject to the most recent declaration in the current scope. Redeclaration can affect how names are interpreted by the compiler, especially typedef names.
