C0D4669026yI can't see anything syntactically wrong with it, but I can see plenty wrong with it using emojis.
This probably does compile as emojis are just Unicode at the end of the day. -
C0D4669026y@iamavalos A brief googley search suggests it has some limited support without using a library.
I guess the only way we will know for sure is if a c++ dev writes and builds it. -
RealKC9586yWell, the standard does technically allow Unicode identifiers(cppreference page about identifiers: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/... ). If no one has tried until then, I'll try something like the above once I get access to a PC in a couple hours.
-
RealKC9586y@RealKC I tested it on godbolt.org with ICC, GCC, Clang and MSVC and neither allow emoji names for functions ðŸ˜
-
RealKC9586y@RealKC it actually seems that Clang accepts emoji identifiers given its on the trunk version.
The other compilers don't accept them for macros, or variables either
