Unfortunately X isn't constant. My understanding of C and C++ packing rules is that X is the size of the largest element. The word size would be a fairly good approximation to that. Another case that we could give more details about is padding, i.e., if we see fewer than 8 bytes uninitialized at the end. *** Bug 480042 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
