I have an aggregate with this definition:
typedef union vec3 {
struct {
double x, y, z;
};
double component[3];
} vec3;
Given this definition, I tried to write the following:
static inline vec3 vec_add(vec3 a, vec3 b)
{
return (vec3) {
.x = a.x + b.x,
.y = a.y + b.y,
.z = a.z + b.z,
};
}
GCC complained about this:
vec.h: In function vec_add:
vec.h:15: error: missing braces around initializer
vec.h:15: error: (near initialization for (anonymous).<anonymous>)
If I had given the nameless inner struct a name, such as "foo", I could have
written:
static inline vec3 vec_add(vec3 a, vec3 b)
{
return (vec3) {
.foo.x = a.foo.x + b.foo.x,
.foo.y = a.foo.y + b.foo.y,
.foo.z = a.foo.z + b.foo.z,
};
}
So since the inner struct does not have a name, it seems reasonable to allow a
designated initializer to omit the name. GCC has no problem unambiguously
resolving the field reference a.x, so it seems like GCC should unambiguously
resolve the designated initializer .x = expression.
In case it helps:
$ gcc -v

I get
t.c: In function 'vec_add':
t.c:10: error: unknown field 'x' specified in initializer
t.c:11: error: unknown field 'y' specified in initializer
t.c:11: warning: excess elements in union initializer

t.c:12: error: unknown field 'z' specified in initializer

instead.

That matches bug 10676.

Sigh. Yes, I get the same set of errors. I seem to have managed to copy and
paste the wrong set of messages.
This does indeed look like a duplicate of bug 10676. Marking as such.
