function

The LPC function is similar but not identical to that provided by C (it is most similar to that provided by ANSI C). The syntax is as follows:

return_type function_name(arg1_type arg1, arg2_type arg2, ...)
{
    variable_declarations;
    ...;

    statements;
    ...;

    return var0;
}

Note that var0 must be of return_type.

If a function doesn't need to return a value, then it should be declared with a return_type of "void". E.g.

void function_name(arg1_type arg1, ...)
{
    statements;
    ...;
}

Invoke a function as follows:

function_name(arg1, arg2, arg3, ...);

You may invoke a function in another object as follows:

object->function_name(arg1, arg2, arg3, ...);

or:

call_other(object, function_name, arg1, arg2, ...);
