Re: named initialization of structs in a .cpp file



I have a .cpp file but I would like to use the C99 named
initialization for structs syntax, can I do that?

struct A sa = {.a = 1,.b = 2.3, .c = 'd'};

the compiler generates "expected primary-expression before '.' token.

I think you're expecting c99 features from the c++ compiler. This should
work with gcc, and fail with g++ as far as I can tell.

no, by default it tries to compile it as C++ ('cos the file extension is .cpp) so they really don't like the ".a = 1" syntax.


I tried to set the option "-std=c99" but it does not like the C++ contents like "#include <iostream>".

I guess what I need is a way to make the compiler to accept both C++ and C99. I have seen compiler options like that in the other compiler...
