<h4 class="subsection">6.32.8 Microsoft Windows Variable Attributes</h4>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>You can use these attributes on Microsoft Windows targets.
|
||
|
<a href="x86-Variable-Attributes.html#x86-Variable-Attributes">x86 Variable Attributes</a> for additional Windows compatibility
|
||
|
attributes available on all x86 targets.

<dl compact="compact">
|
||
|
<dt><code>dllimport</code></dt>
|
||
|
<dt><code>dllexport</code></dt>
|
||
|
<dd><a name="index-dllimport-variable-attribute"></a>
|
||
|
<a name="index-dllexport-variable-attribute"></a>
|
||
|
<p>The <code>dllimport</code> and <code>dllexport</code> attributes are described in
|
||
|
<a href="Microsoft-Windows-Function-Attributes.html#Microsoft-Windows-Function-Attributes">Microsoft Windows Function Attributes</a>.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
</dd>
|
||
|
<dt><code>selectany</code></dt>
|
||
|
<dd><a name="index-selectany-variable-attribute"></a>
|
||
|
<p>The <code>selectany</code> attribute causes an initialized global variable to
|
||
|
have link-once semantics. When multiple definitions of the variable are
|
||
|
encountered by the linker, the first is selected and the remainder are
|
||
|
discarded. Following usage by the Microsoft compiler, the linker is told
|
||
|
<em>not</em> to warn about size or content differences of the multiple
|
||
|
definitions.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>Although the primary usage of this attribute is for POD types, the
|
||
|
attribute can also be applied to global C++ objects that are initialized
|
||
|
by a constructor. In this case, the static initialization and destruction
|
||
|
code for the object is emitted in each translation defining the object,
|
||
|
but the calls to the constructor and destructor are protected by a
|
||
|
link-once guard variable.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>The <code>selectany</code> attribute is only available on Microsoft Windows
|
||
|
targets. You can use <code>__declspec (selectany)</code> as a synonym for
|
||
|
<code>__attribute__ ((selectany))</code> for compatibility with other
|
||
|
compilers.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
</dd>
|
||
|
<dt><code>shared</code></dt>
|
||
|
<dd><a name="index-shared-variable-attribute"></a>
|
||
|
<p>On Microsoft Windows, in addition to putting variable definitions in a named
|
||
|
section, the section can also be shared among all running copies of an
|
||
|
executable or DLL. For example, this small program defines shared data
|
||
|
by putting it in a named section <code>shared</code> and marking the section
|
||
|
shareable:
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
||
|
<pre class="smallexample">int foo __attribute__((section ("shared"), shared)) = 0;
|
||
|
|
||
|
int
|
||
|
main()
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
/* <span class="roman">Read and write foo. All running
|
||
|
copies see the same value.</span> */
|
||
|
return 0;
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>You may only use the <code>shared</code> attribute along with <code>section</code>
|
||
|
attribute with a fully-initialized global definition because of the way
|
||
|
linkers work. See <code>section</code> attribute for more information.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>The <code>shared</code> attribute is only available on Microsoft Windows.
