#include <stdio.h>
void __attribute__((overloadable)) onearg(int i) { printf("Arg is int: %d\n", i); }
void __attribute__((overloadable)) onearg(char *s) { printf("Arg is string: %s\n", s); }

int main() {
    onearg(1);
    onearg("String");
    return 0;
}

$ clang test.c && ./a.out
Arg is int: 1
Arg is string: String
