Today, looking at the man page for open(), I've noticed this function is 'overloaded':

   int open(const char *pathname, int flags);
   int open(const char *pathname, int flags, mode_t mode);

I didn't thought it's possible on C. What's the 'trick' for achieving this ?

Why don't more mainstream statically typed languages support function/method overloading by return type? I can't think of any that do. It seems no less useful or reasonable than supporting overload by parameter type. How come it's so much less popular? >>> More
