Is possible to build a function C/C++ call dynamically? I.e, i have an array with pointer functions and these functions can have different number of parameters and types. These parameters and their types are stored in a database that i'll get depending on the function name that i want to execute with a function pointer.

More or less i want to build a function thrower with any parameter.

Can i build the function call dynamically?

Any idea?
Hello
you can also implement virtual function in C++.
you give some definition of function in the base class and declare it virtual and then give another defintion with/without the same signature in the child class.
This excludes static binding and the function relevant to the data would be called dynamically at runtime. But it does seem a litttle bloated.
I would have a look at the C++ reflection library . Seems interesting though.
Regards.

ATEXIT(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						 ATEXIT(3)

NAME
atexit -- register a function to be called on exit SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h> int atexit(void (*function)(void)); int atexit_b(void (^function)(void)); DESCRIPTION
The atexit() function registers the given function to be called at program exit, whether via exit(3) or via return from the program's main(). Functions so registered are called in reverse order; no arguments are passed. If the provided function is located in a library that has been dynamically loaded (e.g. by dlopen()), it will be called when the library is unloaded (due to a call to dlclose()) or at program exit. The atexit_b() function is like atexit() except the callback is a block pointer instead of a function pointer. Note: The Block_copy() function (defined in <Blocks.h>) is used by atexit_b() to make a copy of the block, especially for the case when a stack-based block might go out of scope when the subroutine returns. These functions must not call exit(); if it should be necessary to terminate the process while in such a function, the _exit(2) function should be used. (Alternatively, the function may cause abnormal process termination, for example by calling abort(3).) At least 32 functions can always be registered, and more are allowed as long as sufficient memory can be allocated. RETURN VALUES
The atexit() and atexit_b() functions return the value 0 if successful; otherwise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
[ENOMEM] No memory was available to add the function to the list. The existing list of functions is unmodified. SEE ALSO
exit(3) STANDARDS
The atexit() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90''). BSD
