This allows the resolution of the symbol value to be determined dynamically at load time, and an optimized version of the -routine can be selected for the particular processor or other system +routine to be selected for the particular processor or other system characteristics determined then. To use this attribute, first define the implementation functions available, and a resolver function that returns a pointer to the selected implementation function. The implementation functions' declarations must match the API of the -function being implemented, the resolver's declaration is be a -function returning pointer to void function returning void: +function being implemented. The resolver should be declared to +be a function taking no arguments and returning a pointer to +a function of the same type as the implementation. For example: @smallexample void *my_memcpy (void *dst, const void *src, size_t len) @{ @dots{} + return dst; @} -static void (*resolve_memcpy (void)) (void) +static void* (*resolve_memcpy (void))(void *, const void *, size_t) @{ return my_memcpy; // we'll just always select this routine @}
