G-Fact 14

In C, a structure cannot have static members, but in C++ a structure can have static members.

For example, following program causes compilation error in C, but works in C++.

#include<stdio.h>

struct test {
  static int i;  // Error in C, but works in C++.
};

int main()
{
  struct test t;
  getchar();
  return 0;
}
