Purpose

Declare and weakly define a plink_timestamp___ global variable.

Description

This component provides a weak definition of the Bloomberg standard plink_timestamp__ variable, which is normally generated by any program that is built with the Bloomberg plink build system. This array of null-terminated strings, ending in a 0, normally contains data useful in identifying when and how a particular task was built.

The definition provided by this component is an array containing a single 0 value with weak linkage, which should cause it to be only linked into an application in build systems that don't generate a definition for this variable themselves. Note that "dummy" definitions of this symbol occasional use an array of empty strings, but that that would crash sysutil_pwhat_getvar if it ended up actually linking together and being called.
