Sometimes it is needed to understand compilation platform during compile or acting and designing UI elements in accordance with the platform. In this post we would like to give some examples to check some options in application codes. The C++ compiler predefines certain global identifiers, known as manifest constants. Most global identifiers begin and end with __ (two underscores) in C++.
Constants
In C++ we learnt that a variable is a container (storage area in memory location) to hold data (integer numbers, floating numbers, strings etc.), Also we explain that the placement of variable definitions as given above is very important. Generally they should…
