           Summary: designated initializer for char array by string
                    constant
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.8.0

          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: pavel.v.chupin@gmail.com


t.C:

struct S { char a[25]; };

int main() {
   struct S s = {a:"aaaa"};
   (void)s;
   return 0;
}


t.C: In function 'int main()':
t.C:4:26: error: C99 designator 'a' outside aggregate initializer
    struct S s = {a:"aaaa"};
                          ^
Workarounds:
1) struct S s = {"aaaa"};
2) struct S { char *a; };
