我尝试搜索C99规范,但“:”匹配每一个页面,“冒号”没有找到每一个用法.同样的,通过玩具C parsers(我明白lex / yacc aren’t capable的解析C),我似乎只是找到部分结果.
这些是我知道使用冒号的场景:
>条件运算符
>位字段
>标签
C中是否有其他语言功能使用冒号?

The term “digraph” (token consisting of two characters) is not
perfectly descriptive,since one of the alternative preprocessing-tokens is%:%:
and of course several primary tokens contain two
characters. Nonetheless,those alternative tokens that aren’t lexical keywords are colloquially known as “digraphs”.
In 1994 a normative amendment to the C standard,included in C99,supplied digraphs as more readable alternatives to five of the trigraphs. ….
Unlike trigraphs,digraphs are handled during tokenization,and any digraph must always represent a full token by itself,or compose the token
