What is the signature of mainCRTStartup


I am looking for the signature of mainCRTStartup. Is it :

int mainCRTStartup( int argc, char *argv[] )

Or something else ?

I find it so irritating that microsoft isn't even able to give the définition of their own entry points...

Thanks for your help.


Solution

  • In the crtexe.c file, distributed with VisualStudio, you can see the definition. It is:

    int mainCRTStartup(void);
    

    The command line is not obtained as an argument to the entry point, but recovered by using the function GetCommandLine().
