Backslash in C str

[gelarimer]

I know that the double backslash is needed in C strings to produce the literal , and that the string 'D:'Cwill producethe followingcompiler warning: "The backslash character and following character is not a
valid escape sequence"

But the following does not produce a warning, and the str seems to work fine as an arg in Win32 function calls:

'D'//':'//ACHAR(0)

Which is correct" 'D'//':'//ACHAR(0) or 'D'//':'//ACHAR(0)?

Any comments would be appreciated.

The first is correct, but Windows is fairly tolerant of using two backslashes when one will do. The literal '' is not the same as ''C.
