TIOBE - C Coding Standard

SR: 8.7#1

Synopsis:	The initialiser for a struct, union or array bound, must be enclosed in braces.
Language:	C
Severity Level:	2
Category:	DECLARATIONS

Description:

The ANSI standard does not define the behaviour of implementations when confronted with initialiser lists which are not brace enclosed.

Example:

typedef struct coord
{
int x;
} Coord;
...
Coord origin = 0; /* undefined behaviour*/

Example:

typedef struct coord
{
int x;
} Coord;
...
Coord mpoint = {0}; /* legal */
