Request to REOPEN bug 6385 was DENIED... creating a new bug...
Error previously reported on bug 6385 (against version 3.0.4.) persists in
version 3.4.4. for more elaborated structs, example:
struct bug_struct {
short a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l;
char m[8];
float n, o, p, q, r;
short s;
char t[20], u[20];
char v[8];
};
is evaluated as 104 bytes (should be 102).
Following program returns 1:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
struct bug_struct {
short a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k , l;
char m[8];
float n, o, p, q, r;
short s;
char t[20], u[20];
char v[8];
};
bug_struct bug;
long int a, b;
const char *explain1 = "The structure above defined is 102 bytes long.";
const char *explain2 = "'a' receives the size of all individual parts: 102.";
const char *explain3 = "'b' receives the size of the struct: 104.";
const char *explain4 = "Program retuns 1.";
int main(void) {
a = sizeof(bug.a)+sizeof(bug.b)+sizeof(bug.c)+sizeof(bug.d)+
sizeof(bug.e)+sizeof(bug.f)+sizeof(bug.g)+sizeof(bug.h)+
sizeof(bug.i)+sizeof(bug.j)+sizeof(bug.k)+sizeof(bug.l)+
sizeof(bug.m)+sizeof(bug.n)+sizeof(bug.o)+sizeof(bug.p)+
sizeof(bug.q)+sizeof(bug.r)+sizeof(bug.s)+sizeof(bug.t)+
sizeof(bug.u)+sizeof(bug.v);
b = sizeof(bug);
if (a == b)
return 0;
else
return 1;
}
