在DELPHI中函数的调用约定分为:
Register,pascal,cdecl,stdcall,safecall,
其主要是决定以下方面:
1.>参数传递的顺序
2.>参数如何Clear up
3.>如何使用寄存器传递参数
4>如何处理异常.
以下CUT FROM Delphi help :
When you declare a procedure or function, you can specify a calling convention
using one of the directives register, pascal, cdecl, stdcall, and safecall.
For example,
function MyFunction(X, Y: Real): Real; cdecl;
...
Calling conventions determine the order in which parameters are passed to
the routine. They also affect the removal of parameters from the stack, t
he use of registers for passing parameters, and error and exception handling.
The default calling convention is register.
The register and pascal conventions pass parameters from left to right;
that is, the leftmost parameter is evaluated and passed first
and the rightmost parameter is evaluated and passed last. The cdecl, stdcall,
and safecall conventions pass parameters from right to left.
For all conventions except cdecl,
the procedure or function removes parameters from the stack upon returning.
With the cdecl convention, the caller removes parameters from the stack when the call returns.
The register convention uses up to three CPU registers to pass parameters,
while the other conventions pass all parameters on the stack.
The safecall convention implements exception 揻irewalls.?On Windows,
this implements interprocess COM error notification.
The table below summarizes calling conventions.
Directive Parameter order Clean-up Passes parameters in registers?
register Left-to-right Routine Yes
pascal Left-to-right Routine No
cdecl Right-to-left Caller No
stdcall Right-to-left Routine No
safecall Right-to-left Routine No
The default register convention is the most efficient,
since it usually avoids creation of a stack frame.
(Access methods for published properties must use register.)
The cdecl convention is useful when you call functions from shared libraries
written in C or C++, while stdcall
and safecall are recommended, in general, for calls to external code.
On Windows, the operating system APIs are stdcall and safecall.
Other operating systems generally use cdecl. (Note that stdcall is more
efficient than cdecl.)
The safecall convention must be used for declaring dual-interface methods.
The pascal convention is maintained for backward compatibility.
For more information on calling conventions, see Program control.
The directives near, far, and export refer to calling conventions
in 16-bit Windows programming. They have no effect in 32-bit applications and
are maintained for backward compatibility only.
