（void）obj和void（obj）之间的区别

Question

According to http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/explicit_cast , C-style cast and functional cast are equivalent. However, see the following example:

#include <array>
int main() {
  std::array<int, 3> arr{};
  (void)arr;
  //void(arr);
}

While (void)arr compiles, void(arr) does not. What have I missed?

Answer 1

If there are no ambiguities (eg other functions with the same name, macros..) involved, the following code declares and defines two int variables

int a = 22;
int (b) = 33;

thus you're trying to create a void variable type (with an existing name) .

And that's wrong because:

1. You're trying to create a void variable

2. You're trying to use an existing name for another variable in the same scope

Answer 2

虽然void(arr)通常与(void)arr相同，但在此上下文中它是一个定义，并且您尝试创建一个名为arr的变量，该变量类型为void ，这是不允许的。
