[previous] 0423 [next] [C] Function call contains more arguments than prototype specifies.
Constraint violations REFERENCE - ISO:C90-6.3.2.2 Function calls

This is a constraint error

A function is being called with more arguments than are specified in a preceding prototype declaration. This is a language constraint violation and is very dangerous as it may lead to corruption of the stack. For example: 


/*PRQA S 3199,3203,3227,3408 ++*/

int foo(int a, int b);

void test(int x, int y, int z)
{
    int ret;

    ret = foo(x, y, z);               /* Message 0423 */
}
