Where is the string literal allocated ? Is it on the stack ?
Hi, IIRC they are put in the .DATA section.
Forgive my silly question: what's IIRC means ?
It means you should STFW for IIRC. ;-)
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/IIRC (in this case, #1 or #2, not #3)
http://www.google.com/search?q=stfw ...the first hit will do :-)
My understanding is : there is a global string literal pool, so the
string literal , like "abc", is not allocated on stack. Is it correct ?
Right, it lives in one of the read-only segments. As noted in my other
message it can't live on the stack or foo() would be broken, and it
isn't (except for the return type missing the 'const' qualifier which is
VERY broken).
