cc on a DECstation (paris) refuses to compile this file:
typedef struct { int a,b,c,d,e; } type;
struct a {
void (*fnp)(struct x *, type *);
};
It says:
ccom: Error: /tmp/test2.c, line 3: syntax error
void (*fnp)(struct x *, type *);
-----------------------------^
ccom: Error: /tmp/test2.c, line 4: zero sized structure
};
^
If the declaration of "fnp" is not inside a structure, the compiler
does not report an error.
