Subject: Query about variable initialization
Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2018 17:48:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DB6PR08MB2806AA39B76718817EA392A48B770@DB6PR08MB2806.eurprd08.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

Hi Ard, Leif.
I've noticed a number of comments like Ard's recent "We don't permit initialized automatic variables.",
and similar changes have been made to Sami's AcpiView.  Note: I'm not objecting to doing it the way maintainers prefer, which is why this is not a response.

My understanding was that the CCS was changed some time back to remove the restriction on initializing variables (and I further think I remember Leif being a prime mover in that).
If that is the case, I suspect the real problem is with ECC.py, which still whinges about it, so probably needs fixing.
Can you confirm that I haven't got a firm grasp on the wrong end of the stick, please?

Regards,
Evan
