            Bug ID: 104699
           Summary: zero-length-array is not considered as an array
           Product: gcc
           Version: 12.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: nickhuang99 at hotmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

GCC clearly states that "declaring zero-length arrays is allowed in GNU C as an
extension".   https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Zero-Length.html

However, parser rejects to recognize int[0] as an array. i.e.

static_assert(! std::is_array<int[0]>::value);

This is not an issue of library function "is_array". Instead it is the
specialization of "is_array<int[0]>" which is not considered valid.
