Message-ID: <1990Dec5.235800.10730@ariel.unm.edu> Date: 5 Dec 90 23:58:00 GMT Sender: news@ariel.unm.edu (USENET News System) Organization: University of New Mexico, Albuquerque NM Lines: 14 Our site recently acquired Ultrix 4.0 and while playing around, I came across a #ifdef that I have never seen before and was wondering if anybody could tell me what its use is. The #ifdef is: #ifdef __STDC__ And can be found, most notably, in /usr/include/stdio.h Thanks for any enlightenment, Larry Riffe II lriffe@ariel.unm.edu
