Neil,
BTW, the fun question is whether (int)(1.1) is allowed; the same goes
for "is ((void *)0) a null pointer constant". 6.5.1 is sloppy ;-)
I believe that the intent is that parentheses are not viewed as
operators,
I suspect that many implementations simply throw them away (or rather
don't bother hanging onto them) in this case, and so work by
'accident'.
just a grouping tool, so yes to both. All implementations
I'm aware of take that view.
The word 'immediate' in sentence 1318
http://c0x.coding-guidelines.com/6.6.html
"... floating constants that are the immediate operands of casts"
could be interpreted to mean that no other tokens occur between
the cast and its operand.
I suspect that the behavior of existing implementations would be
enough to push any implementation that did not treat (int)(1.1) as
an integer constant into accepting it as such.
