typeof in C is a GCC extension. Probably not all compilers support it.
In my branch I just have:
#define GROW_VECT(v, s, m) \
- if ((s) < (m)) (v) = grow_vect (v, &(s), m, sizeof *(v));
+ if ((s) < (m)) (v) = (char *) grow_vect (v, &(s), m, sizeof *(v));
Because that works for all current uses of GROW_VECT.
If we wanted to make this work for random types, then we could add
a type parameter to the GROW_VECT macro, like:
- #define GROW_VECT(v, s, m) \
- if ((s) < (m)) (v) = grow_vect (v, &(s), m, sizeof *(v));
+ #define GROW_VECT(t, v, s, m) \
+ if ((s) < (m)) (v) = (t *) grow_vect (v, &(s), m, sizeof *(v));
Not sure it's worth it though. It then raises the question of
"why not replace this home grown GROW_VECT stuff with a VEC instead".
Thanks,
