|
<a name="index-_0023sccs"></a>
|
|
<p>The ‘<samp>#ident</samp>’ directive takes one argument, a string constant. On
|
|
some systems, that string constant is copied into a special segment of
|
|
the object file. On other systems, the directive is ignored. The
|
|
‘<samp>#sccs</samp>’ directive is a synonym for ‘<samp>#ident</samp>’.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>These directives are not part of the C standard, but they are not
|
|
official GNU extensions either. What historical information we have
|
|
been able to find, suggests they originated with System V.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<a name="index-null-directive"></a>
|
|
<p>The <em>null directive</em> consists of a ‘<samp>#</samp>’ followed by a newline,
|
|
with only whitespace (including comments) in between. A null directive
|
|
is understood as a preprocessing directive but has no effect on the
|
|
preprocessor output. The primary significance of the existence of the
|
|
null directive is that an input line consisting of just a ‘<samp>#</samp>’ will
|
|
produce no output, rather than a line of output containing just a
|
|
‘<samp>#</samp>’. Supposedly some old C programs contain such lines.
