[cfe-dev] no warning for arrays that are too short?

[Sean McBride]

Hi all,

I was sad to discover that the compiler does not warn here:

---------
static void Set4 (const double arg[4])
{
 	printf("%f %f %f %f \n", arg[0], arg[1], arg[2], arg[3]);
}

int main (void)
{
 	double array[3] = {1.0, 2.0, 3.0};
  Set4(array);
 	return 0;
}
---------

I'm admittedly naive, but I would have thought it could see that the passed array has fewer elements than the function expects...

Cheers,

Sean
