Marcin Grzegorczyk said:That's your interpretation.
Yes, it is my opinion on this point that my comment about
assignment semantics and the abstract machine is the only
sensible reading of the relevant portions in the Standard, and
that it matches what the authors intended and expect. It is
also, as far as I know, the opinion of every other person
informed on the subject, including those who have taken the
time to try to write formal descriptions of the semantics
of C's sequencing rules.
Do you have anything to offer here other than a statement of
your own opinion, which seems to be at odds with everyone
else who is informed on the subject?
I think this issue deserves a clarification from the WG14.
(How does one go about filing a Defect Report, anyway?)
I would say such clarification already exists in the new language
regarding sequencing given in N1425 etc, of which Larry Jones has
said that it expresses what the group intended all along. But
don't let that stop you from filing a Defect Report, and please
post something in the newsgroup if you do file one.
