main Function Restrictions

Several restrictions apply to the main function that do not apply to any other C++ functions. The main function:

  • Cannot be overloaded (see Function Overloading).

  • Cannot be declared as inline.

  • Cannot be declared as static.

  • Cannot have its address taken.

  • Cannot be called.
