The 'register' keyword is deprecated since C++11.
Additionally, C++ requires that all objects have unique addresses, that's why
struct X{};
sizeof(X) > 0
(and that's why the "empty ase class optimization" idiom exists).
Moreover, taking the address of an object prevents such object to
dwell in a register.
In your example, even in previous C++ versions, should prevent the
'register' hint to be honored,
thus returning a temporal address to the stack (which would be invalid
in the caller's context).
So the short answer is NO.
Did I answer your question? Is there any case this should be possible?
(consider that I'm pursuing
new C++ features for embedded systems in the C++ committee).
