OK - it is supported, but "not in the same way as gcc".
Getting it to simplified cases:
No GO is stated as: flexible array member cannot be used as a member of
a structure - line25
+23 struct yyy {
+24 char *newLBL;
+25 http_auth_param_t auth[];
+26 };
+27
+28 struct yyy
+29 YYY[] = {
+30 (struct yyy) {
+31 .newLBL = "LBL1"
+32 },
+33 (struct yyy) {
+34 .newLBL = "LBL2"
+35 }
+36 };
!cc c99_comp_literal.c;
"c99_comp_literal.c", line 29.1: 1506-995 (S) An aggregate containing a
flexible array member cannot be used as a member of a structure or as an
array element.
So, to get it to work with a pointer "inside" the data needs to be
initialized more like this:
(what was line 25, is now line 32)
+11 struct xxx {
+12 char *lbl;
+13 http_auth_param_t a[];
+14 };
+15 struct xxx X1 = (struct xxx) {
+16 .lbl = "labelX",
+17 .a = {
+18 (http_auth_param_t) { .p1 = "c1" },
+19 (http_auth_param_t) { .p2 = "g2" },
+20 (http_auth_param_t) { }
+21 }
+22 };
+23 struct xxx X2 = (struct xxx) {
+24 .lbl = "labelX",
+25 .a = {
+26 (http_auth_param_t) { .p1 = "z1" },
+27 (http_auth_param_t) { }
+28 }
+29 };
+30 struct yyy {
+31 char *newLBL;
+32 http_auth_param_t *auth;
+33 };
+34
+35 struct yyy
+36 YYY[] = {
+37 (struct yyy) {
+38 .newLBL = "LBL1",
+39 .auth = X1.a
+40 },
+41 (struct yyy) {
+42 .newLBL = "LBL2",
+43 .auth = X2.a
+44 },
+45 { }
+46 };
Shall work on a 'patch' asap (which might be in 24+ hours)
