C Support

ESP-IDF is primarily written in C and provides C APIs. `Newlib <https://sourceware.org/newlib/>`_ is used as standard C library (the Newlib version can be found in :component_file:`newlib/sbom.yml`). In general, all C features supported by the compiler, currently GCC, should be available in ESP-IDF, unless specified in :ref:`unsupported_c_features` below.

C Version
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
**GNU dialect of ISO C17** (``--std=gnu17``) is the current default C version in ESP-IDF.
|
|
|
|
To compile the source code of a certain component using a different language standard, set the desired compiler flag in the component's ``CMakeLists.txt`` file:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
|
|
|
idf_component_register( ... )
|
|
target_compile_options(${COMPONENT_LIB} PRIVATE -std=gnu11)
|
|
|
|
If the public header files of the component also need to be compiled with the same language standard, replace the flag ``PRIVATE`` with ``PUBLIC``.

Unsupported C Features
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
The following features are not supported in ESP-IDF.
|
|
|
|
Nested Function Pointers
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
The **GNU dialect of ISO C17** supports `nested functions <https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Nested-Functions.html>`_. However, they do not work in ESP-IDF when referenced as function pointer because the compiler generates a trampoline on the stack, while the stack is not executable in ESP-IDF. Hence, do not use function pointers to nested functions.
