Hi,
Forwarding to the mailing list as plain text.
I'll reply to this mail in a moment. For now, let me ask what
</usr/share/misc/operator> contains in macOS; I'm curious.
Have a lovely day,
Alex

Hi, on macOS (and maybe freeBSD), postfix and prefix ++ -- are the same
precedence and can be distinguished by associativities.
Why on linux, postfix and prefix are divided into two different
precedences? What's the reason, is the C language changed?

NAME
operator - C operator precedence and order of evaluation
DESCRIPTION
This manual page lists C operators and their precedence in evaluation.
Operator Associativity Notes
[] () . -> ++ -- left to right [1]
++ -- & * + - ~ ! sizeof right to left [2]
(type) right to left
* / % left to right
+ - left to right
<< >> left to right
< > <= >= left to right
== != left to right
& left to right
^ left to right
| left to right
&& left to right
|| left to right
?: right to left
= *= /= %= += -= <<= >>= &= ^= |= right to left
, left to right
The following notes provide further information to the above table:
[1] The ++ and -- operators at this precedence level are the postfix
flavors of the operators.
[2] The ++ and -- operators at this precedence level are the prefix
flavors of the operators.
