Is it always true for C language?

Yes. The order of function argument evaluation is undefined in C.

http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/dmr/clcs.html is an old paper that talks about the rationale for this. See the section "Effects on the Language" near the end of the paper.

I have problems with this function call:

int i=0;
printf("Format %i, %i\n", i++, i++);
The order of evaluation of function arguments is undefined in C+ +, so there is no guarantee which of the i++ gets evaluated first. See Item 31 in Sutter & Alexandrescu's 'C++ coding standards'. This is exactly the example they give that is not guaranteed to work.
