I had some strange problems with a program I wrote. Finally I isolated the problem to this: The following program compiles OK: struct { char signed; int x; } foo; main() { /* foo.signed = 'y';*/ foo.x = 4711; } Now, if I uncomment the first statement in the main program I get the following error message: x.c: In function main: x.c:8: parse error before `signed' Turns out that "signed" apparently is a reserved word, but gcc does not notice that I don't declare any identifier in the struct. Is this correct behaviour? I ran GCC 1.36 (pyr). -- Kai-Mikael J{{-Aro d85-kai@nada.kth.se "You know how Einstein had bad grades as a kid? Well, mine are even WORSE!" - Calvin
