Forgot to mention the system:
gcc 3.2.1
Linux 2.4.18
x86
Error does not appear in gcc2.95.3 or 3.1
Could someone explain to me why I am seeing this error on the following
code:
warning: invalid offsetof from non-POD type `struct
endpoint_net_struct'; use pointer to member instead
Test case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <linux/stddef.h>
class Myclass {
int _val;
};
struct foo_struct {
void *bar;
Myclass a;
};
int main(void)
{
printf("offset is %d\n", offsetof(struct foo_struct, bar));
}
If I remove the reference to the class, then I do not get this warning.
Is there a correct way to avoid this?
TIA,
Chris
