Create arrays as structs members

[gmarty]

I'd like to know if you plan on adding the possibility to create arrays as struct members.

AFAIK, it is not possible. Such code won't compile:

struct Point {
  int x, y;
};
struct Octogon {
  Point points[8];
};

Though I can define arrays like this:

let points = new Point[8];

It doesn't seem to be possible to do in structs.

Yes, I think we definitely need something like that. For now you can do something like:

struct Octogon {
  Point * points;
}

and then

let Octogon o;
o.points = new Point[8];

I'll try to take of this when I finish a couple other things I'm working on. I think I will need to hack the parser a bit more to allow this.

I would also like to support inline unions, such as:

struct S {
  union {
    int x;
    float y;
  };
}

This is implemented as of rev 72e1d84.
