C99之前没有定义bool型,在C99中在stdbool.h中定义了_Bool为bool,当然true 和 false也没有定义。但是C++中是有bool型的,并且true 和 false也是有定义的。
所以如果是C99之前的标准,需要我们自己定义bool,如
typedef enum {false = 0, true = 1} bool;

1.FALSE/TRUE与false/true的区别:
false/true是标准C++语言里新增的关键字,而FALSE/TRUE是通过#define,这要用途
是解决程序在C与C++中环境的差异,以下是FALSE/TRUE在windef.h的定义:
#ifndef FALSE
#define FALSE 0
#endif
#ifndef TRUE
#define TRUE 1
#endif
也就是说FALSE/TRUE是int类型,而false/true是bool类型;所以两者不一样的,只不过
我们在使用中没有这种感觉,因为C++会帮你做隐式转换。
2.bool的大小与BOOL的区别:
bool在C++里是占用1字节,而BOOL是int类型,int类型的大小是视具体环境而定的;所以来说:
false/true只占用1个字节,而TRUE/FALSE视具体环境而言,以下是BOOL在windef .h中的定义:typedef int BOOL;
3.NULL与0的区别:
还是让我们看一下windef.h中NULL的定义:
#ifndef NULL
#ifdef __cplusplus//这个是指示是用C++来编译程序
#define NULL 0
#else
#define NULL ((void *)0)
#endif
#endif
所以说:它们没有区别,只不过在C里面会做一个强制类型转换。
