Rule 2-10-5 and function overloading - pkruk - 23-07-2008
Hello,
does rule 2-10-5 disallows function overloading? What is the definition of "identifier reuse"?
For example:
Code:
class C{};
void foo(int);
void foo(C); // Not compliant?
void foo(int, C); // Not compliant?Re: Rule 2-10-5 and function overloading - ggoulas - 25-02-2011

The short answer is No, this rule does not prohibit function overloading. The intent was to prohibit the reuse of identifiers for unrelated objects.
This will be clarified in a Technical Corrigendum
