LGTM! ================ Comment at: clang/test/CXX/dcl.decl/dcl.meaning/dcl.array/p1-cxx0x.cpp:5 int b[5]; - auto a[5] = b; // expected-error{{'a' declared as array of 'auto'}} - auto *c[5] = b; // expected-error{{'c' declared as array of 'auto *'}} + auto a[5] = b; // expected-error{{variable 'a' with type 'auto[5]' has incompatible initializer of type 'int[5]'}} + auto *c[5] = b; // expected-error{{variable 'c' with type 'auto *[5]' has incompatible initializer of type 'int[5]'}} ---------------- zyounan wrote: > aaron.ballman wrote: > > I've seen worse diagnostics, but the phrasing here is interesting -- if you > > use `int a[5] = b;` instead of `auto`, you get `array initializer must be > > an initializer list` as a diagnostic, so I wonder why we're getting such a > > drastically different diagnostic for `auto`.

Okay, this seems reasonable to me now that I understand it better, thank you.
