Re: [patch/rfc] Test struct0

Hello,

This adds a test for:

Nope.

I guess I misunderstood Jim's comments. http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2004-01/msg00717.html

      struct-or-union-specifier:
           struct-or-union identifier-opt { struct-declaration-list }
           struct-or-union identifier

      struct-or-union:
           struct
           union

      struct-declaration-list:
           struct-declaration
           struct-declaration-list struct-declaration

      struct-declaration:
           specifier-qualifier-list struct-declarator-list ;

So there must be a minimum of one declarator and trailing semicolon
inside the braces.  GCC will warn about this if you ask it to - it's
probably -ansi, or -std=c89 -ansi -pedantic.

While it's not legal C, I believe that it is legal C++.

But are you sure? :-) If it's legal C++ then it, along with some other wierd-o edge cases should probably be added to a gdb.cp/struct0 test (someone with less rusty C++ than me can probably come up with a list).


Trying to include it in structs.exp would just be too messy.
