However, there is no requirement in this standard that this is so, and the program executed will see this string in the first element of the <i>argv[]</i> array passed to its <i>main()</i> function, and may alter its functionality based on this.</blockquote>Minor copyediting nit, but the first clause of the second sentence seems more closely related to the first sentence than to the rest of the second sentence. Suggestion:<blockquote>The string in <i>arg0</i> or <i>argv[0]</i> is typically the basename of the path of the file being executed, but this standard does not require it to be so. The program executed will see this string in the first element of the <i>argv[]</i> array passed to its <i>main()</i> function and may alter its functionality based on it.</blockquote> Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2023-11-22 02:24 Mark_Galeck New Issue 2023-11-22 02:24 Mark_Galeck Name => Mark Galeck 2023-11-22 02:24 Mark_Galeck Section => Volume 2, Chapter 3 2023-11-22 02:24 Mark_Galeck Page Number => 865, 2487 2023-11-22 02:24 Mark_Galeck Line Number => 80936, 29495 2023-11-22 06:20 larryv Note Added: 0006579 2023-11-22 07:18 Don Cragun Note Added: 0006580 2023-11-22 07:19 Don Cragun Project 1003.1(2016/18)/Issue7+TC2 => Issue 8 drafts 2023-11-22 07:21 Don Cragun version => Draft 3 2023-11-22 09:42 Guy Harris Note Added: 0006581 2023-11-22 09:57 Guy Harris Note Added: 0006582 2023-12-11 14:58 geoffclare Note Added: 0006596 2024-01-15 16:40 nick Relationship added related to 0001645 2024-01-15 17:28 nick Note Added: 0006621 2024-01-15 17:29 nick Final Accepted Text => see https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1789#c6621 2024-01-15 17:29 nick Status New => Resolved 2024-01-15 17:29 nick Resolution Open => Accepted As Marked 2024-01-15 17:30 nick Tag Attached: tc1-2024 2024-01-15 17:31 nick Note Edited: 0006621 2024-01-17 17:43 gbrandenrobinsonNote Added: 0006626 2024-01-18 16:08 nick Note Edited: 0006621 2024-01-18 16:08 nick Note Added: 0006627 2024-01-18 16:09 nick Note Added: 0006628 2024-01-18 16:10 nick Note Deleted: 0006628 2024-01-18 16:44 eblake Note Edited: 0006621 2024-01-19 19:31 larryv Note Added: 0006631 ======================================================================
