Message-ID: <e734429a-d543-7e75-48e9-a8297a94b035@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200921140100.GA449323@redhat.com>
I have developed this draft code, the C++ part being based on what you
wrote.
I am a C programmer, and my C++ is very basic, and I tend to write
C-compatible code when I need C++, so I can't really write the C++ part.
I tested the code with all C versions (--std= {c89, c99, c11, c18,
c2x}), and it worked for all of them (correctly returning 18 in all of
them), and if I uncomment the part of the pointer, it has a nice error
message. I used `-Wall -Wextra -Werror -pedantic -Wno-vla
-Wno-sizeof-pointer-div`.
However, the C++ part needs some work to be able to compile.
Would you mind finishing it?
Thanks,
Alex
