Can a function with variable no. of arguments be overloaded in VC++?

I have an exported function in a dll(written in vc++) which has got variable no. of arguments. Now I want to overload this function without variable no. of arguments. Is there anything wrong with this concept? The reason I am concerned is because I have read that vc++ uses __cdecl calling conve开发者_如何学Pythonntion for c and c++.

Sample signatures are given below.

void f(int i, char *fmt, ...);
void f(int i, string str);

It depends from where are you planning to call these functions. They should be converted to names like f__FiPc?? and f__Fi6string.

C++ compiler will decode them and C compiler will miss the function f if you haven't declared extern "c". However it depends on the implementation of your compiler.
