Bug ID: 102998 Summary: Wrong documentation for -Warray-parameter Product: gcc Version: 12.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: roland.illig at gmx dot de Target Milestone: --- https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html says: > For example, the warning triggers for the following redeclarations because > the first one allows an array of any size to be passed to f while the second > one with the keyword static specifies that the array argument must have at > least four elements. > > void f (int[static 4]); > void f (int[]); // warning (inconsistent array form) 1. The words 'first' and 'second' should be swapped. 2. Why should there be a warning? The array from malloc is large enough, it has exactly 4 elements.
