For the life of me I can't figure out the proper syntax for creating an array of structures in C. I tried this:
struct foo {
int x;
int y;
} foo[][] = {
{
{ 1, 2 },
{ 4, 5 },
{ -1, -1 }
},
{
{ 55, 44 }
{ 100, 200 },
}
};
So for example foo[1][0].x == 100, foo[0][1].y == 5, etc. But GCC spits out a lot of errors.
If anyone could provide the proper syntax that'd be great.
EDIT: Okay, I tried this:
struct foo {
const char *x;
int y;
};
struct foo bar[2][] = {
{
{ "A", 1 },
{ "B", 2 },
{ NULL, -1 },
},
{
{ "AA", 11 },
{ "BB", 22 },
{ NULL, -1 },
},
{
{ "ZZ", 11 },
{ "YY", 22 },
{ NULL, -1 },
},
{
{ "XX", 11 },
{ "UU", 22 },
{ NULL, -1 },
},
};
But GCC gives me "elements of array bar have incomplete type" and "excess elements in array initializer".
