Declarations and Definitions REFERENCE - ISO:C90-6.5.2.3 Tags

A struct or union tag is being used which has not been defined. This is an example of an incomplete type.

The declaration of a struct or union is not allowed to have incomplete type; message 0620 will be generated - a constraint error. However it is possible to define or declare a pointer to an incomplete struct or union type, and this is sometimes useful.

For example: 


/*PRQA S 2017,3211,3408 ++*/

struct ST1   st1;          /* Message 3313 and also 0620 - Constraint Error */
struct ST2 * pst2;         /* Message 3313                                  */
