Subject: [PATCHv4 6/6] Remove forward declaration of an enum
Date: Wed, 15 Aug 2018 10:54:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180815175410.5726-7-newren@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180815175410.5726-1-newren@gmail.com>
According to http://c-faq.com/null/machexamp.html, sizeof(char*) !=
sizeof(int*) on some platforms. Since an enum could be a char or int
(or long or...), knowing the size of the enum thus is important to
knowing the size of a pointer to an enum, so we cannot just forward
declare an enum the way we can a struct. (Also, modern C++ compilers
apparently define forward declarations of an enum to either be useless
because the enum was defined, or require an explicit size specifier, or
be a compilation error.)
