The following code: struct S { int x[3]; };
void f() { S s = {1,2,3};} With -Wmissing-braces (which is implied by -Wall, among others) gives: warning: missing braces around initializer for 'int [3]' In the specific case where a struct contains only a single array, adding the extra braces doesn't really seem that useful. The reason it would be nice to fix this that in the definition of tr1::array in the TR1 specification (page 88, 6.2.2) says 2.An array is an aggregate ([dcl.init.aggr]) that can be initialized with the syntax array a = { initializer-list }; where initializer-list is a comma separated list of up to N elements whose types are convertible to T. -- Summary: Warning "missing braces around initializer" causing problems with tr1::array Product: gcc Version: 4.1.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: chris at bubblescope dot net http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25137
