Subsections

Portability

Data Representation/Byte Ordering

Character constants should only contain one character because of differences in portability; a string literal may be used instead.

Avoid hard-coding offsets into structures. The alignment of structure members is implementation dependent. The pre-defined "offsetof" macro should be used to determine structure member offset.

Execution Order

Avoid dependence on initialization order of global static objects.

Avoid dependence on order of operand evaluation.

Avoid Dependence on initialization order in constructors.
