| <h3 class="section">8.7 The ‘<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>’ Type Descriptor</h3> |
| |
| <p>This is used to describe a class method. This is a function which takes |
| an extra argument as its first argument, for the <code>this</code> pointer. |
| |
| <p>If the ‘<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>’ is immediately followed by another ‘<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>’, the second |
| one will be followed by the return type and a semicolon. The class and |
| argument types are not specified, and must be determined by demangling |
| the name of the method if it is available. |
| |
| <p>Otherwise, the single ‘<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>’ is followed by the class type, a comma, |
| the return type, a comma, and zero or more parameter types separated by |
| commas. The list of arguments is terminated by a semicolon. In the |
| debugging output generated by gcc, a final argument type of <code>void</code> |
| indicates a method which does not take a variable number of arguments. |
| If the final argument type of <code>void</code> does not appear, the method |
| was declared with an ellipsis. |
| |
| <p>Note that although such a type will normally be used to describe fields |
| in structures, unions, or classes, for at least some versions of the |
| compiler it can also be used in other contexts. |
