While it is true that the initializer element cannot be computed at "load" time, it is not a "load time" item that is being initialized. The item being initialized is a dynamic element on the stack inside a function call and it is initialized from a function argument. It is entirely irrelevant that the element cannot be computed at "load time" because computing it thusly would be of no use whatsoever -- initialization of items residing on a functions call stack must always be done at "run time" and can never be done at "load time". So the erroneous warning should just be ignored and a bug report filed against the compiler. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list [email protected] http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
