[Bug c++/80243] c++ doesn't allow function to return a struct (or object?) - same thing

Your second example doesn't compile for a very simple reason:

(In reply to Jim Michaels from comment #1)
> #include <string>
> #include <initializer_list>
> typedef struct {std::string s;int i;} Structsb;
> Structsb fn(std::string s1, int i1) {
>     return {s1,i1};
> }
> int main() {}

I'm guessing you didn't mean to put a closing brace here?

> Structsb structsb=fn("string",1);
> return strustsb.i;
> }

Do you see what I mean about reporting bugs every time your code doesn't
compile? This is a simple mistake, not a bug in GCC. Stop assuming everything
is a bug in GCC, which has hundreds of thousands of hours of development and
testing by very talented people who understand C++ very well. If something
trivial like returning a struct didn't work somebody would have noticed before
you did. You're not the only user of GCC.
