As the above answers mentioned, '@' is not part standard C++; however, it does appear in Objective-C, and hence in Objective-C++, and hence, in real-world code, such as WebKit.

No, it isn’t used in C++. It doesn’t appear anywhere in the standard. In particular, it does not appear in the set of legal C++ characters [lex.charset].
