It should be said how the user (= body of the function) accesses to (possibly existing) extra arguments and their number. — MFH: Talk 19:07, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

now you (Akihabara) added "no means is provided...", although I somehow remember some trick to find it out (but I stopped doing tricky things in C about 10 years ago...) - but maybe the tricks I used then are too tricky to be mentioned officially...(kindof calculations with stack pointers, return adresses sneaked from the stack, memory addresses of passed parameters, etc.etc.) - but wasn't there some simple (and official) VA_NUM_ARGS() macro or so? — MFH: Talk 19:14, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

No. There may be compiler extensions, but there is no way for the macro itself to find out. Note this has nothing to do with stacks; you may be getting confused with variadic functions --Akihabara 22:49, 13 May 2005 (UTC)


The page says "Previous versions of Visual Studio lack this feature", but I'm compiling some variadic macros in VS 2003. --anon
