Hi Michael,
I think the '...' is called an ellipsis in the array initializer.
So you can do something like:
int array[10] = { [4] = 9, [1 ... 2] = 88, [7 ... 9] = 1 };
It's valid C99 code.
IIRC, it's *NOT* valid C90 or C++98 code. (I'm not sure if GCC provides
convenience extensions that you may have to disable in a C90 or C++98
environment.)
You may find this output of interest:
gcc -S test.c
cat test.s
HTH,
--Eljay
