#ifdef __cplusplus

typedef struct FooT
{
    uint32_t type;
    uint32_t len;
    union
    {
        uint8_t array[0];
    } u;
    FooT() {

#ifdef __cplusplus

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
    printf("sizeof FooT %zd\n", sizeof(FooT));
    return 0;
}

-----
Compile above code snippet will warns:
main.cpp:14:5: warning: union has size 0 in C, size 1 in C++
[-Wextern-c-compat]
    union

But the runtime result shows sizeof(FooT) is 8:
sizeof FooT 8
