#2Is argc really a const in C++'s main? I can't imagine why it would be, given that argv++; argc--; is a very standard idiom in command-line argument processing.

Seeing I wasn't using it, I thought I might hint to the optimiser that it could optimise it away. But now that you mention it, the argv should have been const char * const

The optimizer is quite able to recognize that a variable is unused. :-)
In fact, if you compile that code with warnings turned on, you'll get a "variable is not used" warning -- which most style guides say should be silenced by adding the following line to the start of your function:
(void)argc; /* UNUSED */Re: My resignation letter is in ANSI C++
#5 #include
int main (int argc, char **argv) {
puts("Screw you guys! I'm going home.");
}
