The C standard specifies the name __STDC__ as the official way to indicate
support for the standard.  Unfortunately, of course, in practice all you
get is an indication that the vendor claims compliance.

: I don't believe that ANSI dictates the existence of such a macro. I could be
: wrong on this one. However, if I remember correctly, MS C 6.0 defined a macro
: __STDC__ and IBM C-Set++ defines one called __ANSI__. I believe this varies
: with the compiler that you're using. Check the compiler documentation.

: Hope this helped!

: Cheers!
