array of pointers)

 Reporter:  guest   |        Type:  defect

Comment(by guest):

 I think this may be related:
 bug.h
 {{{
 typedef char inner_t[32];
 typedef struct
 {
         inner_t first;
         inner_t second;
 } outer_t;
 }}}

 bug.chs
 {{{
 module Bug where
 #include "bug.h"
 main :: IO ()
 main = print ({# sizeof inner_t #}, {# sizeof outer_t #})
 }}}

 Running c2hs bug.chs (on a 64-bit machine) gives me…
 {{{
 module Bug where
 main :: IO ()
 main = print (32, 16)
 }}}
 Shurely schome mischtake?

 On the other hand,
 okay.h
 {{{
 typedef struct
 {
         char first[32];
         char second[32];
 } outer_t;
 }}}
 okay.chs
 {{{
 module Okay where
 #include "okay.h"
 main :: IO ()
 main = print {# sizeof outer_t #}
 }}}
 gives…
 {{{
 module Okay where
 main :: IO ()
 main = print 64
 }}}
