Bug ID: 67236
Summary: Wrong Message of -Wvla for Standard ISO C90 However
Emitted with -std=c11
Product: gcc
Version: 6.0
Status: RESOLVED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: chengniansun at gmail dot com
CC: mpolacek at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
Status: RESOLVED
CC: mpolacek at gcc dot gnu.org
Resolution: DUPLICATE
When I compile the code "int array[4.3];", in addition to the error, GCC also
emits a -Wvla warning saying that ISO C90 forbids this. However, I specify
-std=c11 in the command line, and IMHO this is at least an inconsistency
between errors and error messages.
$: cat t.c
int array[4.3];
$: gcc-trunk -c -Wvla -std=c11 -pedantic t.c
t.c:1:5: error: size of array âarrayâ has non-integer type
int array[4.3];
^
t.c:1:1: warning: variably modified âarrayâ at file scope
int array[4.3];
^
t.c:1:1: warning: ISO C90 forbids array âarrayâ whose size canât be evaluated
[-Wvla]
$: gcc-trunk -v
Using built-in specs.
