Hi Guys, I just found an issue in kernel code and thought we must have a compilation warning for such cases.
Submitted a bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/1064218 Problem description: ------------------------- When we have following declaration: struct foo { char array[5]; .... }; And have a definition like: struct foo foo_abc = { .array = "12345", }; Problem here is: size of array is 5 bytes and so we can actually add a string with four characters only to it, as '\0' will take an additional space. But with my definition of foo_abc.. i had 5 characters + '\0'... that will make it 6 and that will overflow the array.. What will actually happen here? - compiler will not add '\0' at all? -or it will go outside of boundaries of array? -- viresh _______________________________________________ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
