Hi,

I am wondering what the register keyword does, I am hoping that it is the same as the c++ register keyword.

In c++ the register keyword tries to make the compiler use the CPU's registers if possible for the variable being defined.

If anyone knows what the register keyword does and how it is used please let me know.

I could use "asm" and use the registers myself but its not cross platform compatible.

Thanks

register is the name of a calling convention which uses registers when possible for function parameters.

The register keyword defines that the routine uses this calling convention, but it normally isn't used because this is the default calling convention.

The register keyword is completely ignored by pretty much any modern C(++) compiler out there.
