Hi,

I have a question on embedded type definitions.

If in a structure definition, another type is defined. e.g.

typedef struct S1 {
struct S2 {
int a;
}
} S1;

is the data type S2 visible outside S1? Originally i think it is not visible outside.

in C it is visible, in C++ it is not. in C it declares a field of the outer struct, in C++ it declares a nested member.

Your example is neither C not C++ though, as it is missing at least a
semi colon.
