Sorry if this was off topic as a few members seem to indicate, I
thought this was a general C discussion forum rather than related to
any particular OS. I was not aware that my topic was outside the scope
of standard C development.

BTW, what is the topic of this group so I can use it better?

The topic is the C language itself, not any particular implementation
or platform.

Your original question was fine (Is there a way to do it?) and
Walter's original response was correct (Not in standard C). Walter was
also correct (and helpful) in suggesting a different newsgroup for
information about your specific problem.

Things went off-topic from there.
