Where do local variables get stored at compile time?
<p>Maybe i'm missing something obvious, but isn't it during runtime that local variables get placed on the stack when the function containing the variables gets called.</p>

<p>Therefore when the compiler will step through our source code, it will place the operations of the function in the .text segment, but where do the variables get placed at compile time so they can be placed onto the stack at run-time? Thanks</p>
