[SOLVED] Xcode chockes on variable-sized arrays in struct definitions

I did in fact end up using a fixed-sized array which did the trick as long as the static initializers are never greater than the maximum array size.

Thanks,

Mike

I don't think that style of initialization was ever legal C. C99 gets you
the struct { int foo[] } syntax accepted. Correct nesting of braces gets you
initialization of an array member of a struct. But there is no facility for
static initialization of a variable-length (flexible) array member.

It seems to me your options are (some combination of): possibly template
which uses number of array elements as a template parameter, replace the
inline array member with a pointer to an out-of-line array, change from
static initializers to malloc'ing the storage and initializing it at
startup, fixing the length of the array to the maximum size needed.
