QA·C Help - 0351

	0351	Using an initializer when defining an automatic object of struct, union or array type.

K+R compatibility		REFERENCE - ISO:C90-6.5.7 Initialization

A local array, structure or union with automatic storage duration is being initialised. This was not permitted in early versions of the C language.

Be aware that message 0351 is only generated when the "-k+r a" option is enabled. Messages 0351 and 3604 are functionally equivalent. When the "-k+r a" option is enabled, message 3604 is no longer generated.

For example:
