The MS compiler fails the test for the __restrict keyword
Like this:
typedef int * int_ptr;
int foo (int_ptr __restrict ip) // C2219: syntax error
But this works OK:
typedef int * __restrict int_ptr;
int foo (int_ptr ip) // OK
which make sense - not allowing change of a defined custom type
MSDN says:
The __restrict keyword is valid only on variables
__restrict is similar to restrict from the C99 spec, but __restrict can be
used in C++ or C programs
autoconf.m4f(11784), c.m4(1666) from current CVS
for ac_kw in __restrict __restrict__ _Restrict restrict; do
AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(
[[typedef int * int_ptr;
int foo (int_ptr $ac_kw ip) {
return ip[0];
}]],
...
Could be fixed with:
for ac_kw in __restrict __restrict__ _Restrict restrict; do
AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(
[[typedef int * $ac_kw int_ptr;
int foo (int_ptr ip) {
return ip[0];
}]],
...
Tested with compiler version: AMD64 14.0.50722.762 (VS2005 SP1)
