Hey All,
First post here. Firstly, thank you all for your work on this project. I
discovered tcc just a month or so ago and really enjoying using it as a
back-end code generator for a custom scripting language I'm working on.
Anyway, I noticed this small bug:
A variable declaration as the first statement in a switch case block fails when
it shouldn't:
case 1:
int z = 123; // This fails with "identifier expected"
break;
Hi,
well, yes, no. As a fact, a variable declaration is not a
statement.
There's a pretty easy workaround, just insert an empty statement before.
case 1:
; // This fixes it
int z = 123;
break;
Yes, label before statement is allowed, also label before empty
statement, just not label before no statement.
As for example "label: }" is not allowed either (in the theory).
See also what gcc has to say:
test.c: In function 'main':
test.c:7:23: error: a label can only be part of a statement and a declaration
is not a statement
switch(a) case 1: int z;
^~~
Which of course if a lot better than just "identifier expected"
I would agree that far.

(this was build of the mob repo on github - not sure if that affects things).
