The "on my system" applies to what the program prints.

The paragraph that says "printf has no way to know" is a general
statement, for any implementation of printf().  If you had meant it
to apply only to your system, you should have said something like
"because that printf had no way to know".  Without any qualifying
adjective or other indicator the statement is generic, not
specific.

You're quibbling about something I wrote nearly two months ago.

Certainly printf has no way defined by the language to know whether
its arguments are of the correct types.  An implementation could
provide that information via some system-specific method, but I know
of no implementations that do so, and I'd be surprised if any such
implementations exist.  What I wrote was true on my system and is
very likely true on all real-world systems.

If you have something to say about whether any such implementations
exist, I invite you, but do not expect you, to share it.  That might
actually be interesting.

Every I/O function has a way of reporting failure, because every one is
capable of failing. That's because, if nothing else, hardware problems
could prevent I/O from happening. How much attention you need to pay to
that possibility depends upon the context.

On some systems I've used, it would try to interpret the pointer to the
string as an int, and print the result. On others, it would expect the
int to be stored in one register, whereas the pointer was stored in a
different register, and as a result it would print whatever value was
last stored in the first register. These were natural outcomes for those
implementations; had the C standard imposed any conflicting requirements
on the behavior, it would have complicated those implementations.

For most of the programs I ever wrote, a single check for ferror(file)
at the end of the program, resulting in exit(EXIT_FAILURE) being called,
would be acceptable. That approach relies on the fact that the error
flag is sticky. Because I made a habit of such checks, we caught a
problem when a disk overflowed before we'd wasted hours "writing" data
to nowhere. If I had sent a message to a log file, it would have been
blocked by the same problem, which is why I used the exit status to
report the problem.
But I was never involved in writing interactive programs, where I
suspect that would not be acceptable.

Right. That occurred to me only after I had sent my post.

Hmm.. - I don't recall to have ever used ferror().

Personally it seems to me that continuing I/O once an error gets
flagged is not something I'd have done with an easy conscience.
So I'd not have dared to interrogate that state only once at the
end of the program. But then, instead of regularly calling ferror,
checking the RC should suffice?

(I think I mentioned already that usually we inspected the RC at
the place of generation for all functions where we felt it matters
and where we can act on such events.)

Okay. In our cases we had no problems with disk overflows; our main
operational concern was communication of data, less storage of huge
amounts of temporaries or payload data. For logfiles we had our own
framework with IIRC a "tandem approach" (alternating between two or
more logfiles, each with a fixed maximum number of log-entries, and
reused when it's its turn); so disk space was well under control.

I didn't ask any question.

You, on the other hand, did.

I take it that you don't understand what is being discussed, and why. In 
that case you're wasting /your/ time posting.

Sorry, I thought that would be clear enough.

Syntactically, an expression-statement is an optional statement
followed by a semicolon (N3220 6.8.4, glossing over an irrelevant
detail).  I merely used it as an easy way to establish a context in
which 42 is obviously a full expression (defined as "an expression
that is not part of another expression, nor part of a declarator
or abstract declarator").

An expression-statement where the expression has no side effects
is not useful, but it's permitted.  C tends not to ban things just
because they're not useful.  `42;` is useful only to illustrate
the point I was making about expressions.

Since a function call is an expression, this is an expression-statement:

    printf("hello, world\n");

[...]

To be clear, I have zero doubt that 42 is an expression.  My concern
is that the C standard's English definition of "expression" doesn't
quite say so.  I advocate improving the wording so it expresses
the obvious and universally agreed intent.

I think this conclusion can be explained as a misreading of the text
in the C standard.  In reading the text "An *expression* is a
sequence of operators and operands", I think you are interpreting it
as meaning "at least one of each of operators and operands".  But
this text could also be read as "at least one of either of operators
and operands", or in other words a sequence of elements of the set
containing both operands and operators, in which case 42 would
qualify as an expression.

An argument might be made about whether the text in the C standard
_should_ mean that, but certainly it _could_ mean that.

My compiler accepts

   int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) {

     42 ;

     return 0 ;
   }

and builds an executable out of it.  Does yours?

No.  The term "operand" is defined in N3220 6.4.6p2:

    An *operand* is an entity on which an operator acts.

As I already explained, in the expression statement `42;`, 42 it is
neither an operator nor an operand.  It can't be an operand unless
there's an operator to act on it.  So your reading of the text as
"at least one of either of operators and operands" doesn't help.

> An argument might be made about whether the text in the C standard
> _should_ mean that, but certainly it _could_ mean that.

It might be reasonable to define "operand" in a way that includes
a constant that is a full expression, but the standard clearly
doesn't say that.

To restate the obvious, my argument is not that `42` is not an
expression.  It's that the standard's definition of "expression"
is flawed.  The only sensible workaround is to pretend that `42`
is an expression -- basically to ignore the italicized definition of
"expression" and instead rely on the grammar production.

The text of the standard explicitly carves this out; or, rather,
it attempts to.  If the result of an expression is not
representable in the target type, _regardless of whether that's
due to UB or not_, a diagnostic is required.

But as it happens, I think I can see how your interpretation may
be valid: if, as a result of UB, the expression evaluates to "0"
(or 12 or something simiilar) that _is_ representable, then
there _is no constraint violation_ and so no diagnostic is
required.

I do not believe that that is the intent.  But it _is_
conformant with the text of the standard.

This is a problem with the C standard: it is insufficiently
precise, as the semantics of the language are not formally
defined.

The same could be said to you, as well.  There exists a reading
of the standard by which your `foo`-containing program is not
strictly conforming .  But that way lies madness; C is not a
formally specified language.  Given that as an objective fact,
we must accept intent, consistency, and other "soft" aspects
when considering its definition.

That sort of sucks, but here we are.

How would an expression (appearing in a context that requires an
integer constant expression) not "evaluate to a constant that is in
the range of representable values for its type" other than by UB?
I can't think of an example, but I'd be interested in seeing one.

Note in particular that UINT_MAX+1U is well defined, not an overflow.

It wouldn't.  But because it's UB, it could evaluate to
anything, including something that didn't violate the
constraint.

>I can't think of an example, but I'd be interested in seeing one.

In terms of a practical, working compiler?  I doubt that one
exists.

I actually meant in terms of the standard, not of any particular
compiler.

I can't think of an example, but maybe someone else can.

Oh.  Well, I suppose something that relied on _IB_, like
conversion from a large unsigned integer type to a smaller
signed integer type that led to a trap, might fall into that
category.

I think it's been that way for a while, sadly.

His MO seems to be to make a claim, be shown to be wrong,
disappear for an extended stretch, and then reappear with a
non-response.
