designated initializer style

[roptat]

Sorry, here's another one :D

struct point {
  int    x;
  int    y;
};

int main() {
  struct point p = { .y = 2, .x = 1 };
}

fails to parse the initialization of variable p.

designated initializer style is a C99 feature.

Yeah, that's the syntax I always found myself hard to grasp) Do you plan to work on it?

[roptat]

I'll give it a try

Awesome, I meantime, added more tests. With that said, could you please include tests in your next patch? It is easy with dune cram, just take the code you examples and put into ctoxml/test.t/c99-struct-initializers.c and add the following line to ctoxml/test.t/run.t (notice a pair of spaces before $, they are important)

  $ ctoxml c99-struct-initializers.c

Then run dune test and it will spill the diff saying that there is a change in the tests, review if the output matches your expectations, and once it does, just do

dune promote

to accept this output.
