Which `main` is used if I specify more than one

Question

Along with several others, prototypes are valid for main() :

• int main(void)

• int main(int, char**)

In C, we cannot overload functions, so there can never be either one or the other. But in C ++ this is not the case. If I had both in a compiled C ++ executable, which one is used? Does it depend on the command line? What does the standard say?

Answer 1

C ++ 11 §3.6.1 / 2:

" This function should not be overloaded.
