Hi guys:

The attached code has a structure with one member array of 2 elements. This code compiles and it shouldn't: note in main() that there's access to the member without an index and the compiler is not giving any error.

What's going on here?

I am using Silabs 8051F380 processorC51 , compiler V9.55, and BL linker V6.22

Thanks!!!
