SUMMARY
=======
There are a number of C Run-time routines that have both a function version and
an intrinsic version. If the following statement is used in an application to
force use of the function version:
#pragma function( a_CFunction )
where a_CFunction is a C Run-time library routine, the compiler generates the
following error:
error C2164: 'a_CFunction': intrinsic was not declared.
if the /Oi option is not used. The same is true for the following statement to
force use of the intrinsic:
#pragma intrinsic( a_CFunction )
MORE INFORMATION
================
When you don't use the /Oi or /Ox option, you need to declare a function
prototype before you can use the function or intrinsic pragmas. For example, to
properly use the memcpy function in the Sample Code below, either STRING.H or
MEMORY.H must be included. Consult the C Run-time documentation for the
appropriate header (.H) file to include.
For more information about #pragma intrinsic or C Run-time functions that have
intrinsic versions, consult the documentation provided with your Microsoft
compiler or development environment.
Sample Code
-----------
/* Compile options needed: none
*/
#pragma function( memcpy )
char s1[] = "string";
char s2[10];
void main( )
{
memcpy( s2, s1, 7 );
}
