QA·C Help - 4645

	4645	The identifier '%1s' could conflict in the future with the name of a typedef in '<%2s>'.

Identifiers		REFERENCE - ISO:C90-7.13 Future Library Directions, ISO:C99-7.26 Future Library Directions

This is a reserved identifier. It could be introduced as a typedef in a future revision of the specified system library file.

Identifiers of this form are described in the ISO:C99 standard in Section 7.26 - Future Library Directions.

Names to avoid are:

Names beginning with int and ending in _t may be added to <stdint.h>.
Names beginning with uint and ending in _t may be added to <stdint.h>.

Although these names may not currently be used in the standard library, they might be in the future and it is therefore best to avoid them.

For example:


/*PRQA S 553,2017,2213,3205,3211,3408,3602 ++*/

typedef int  intabc_t;           /* Message 4645 - A typedef of this name could be defined in a future revision of <stdint.h>   */
long uintABC_t;                  /* Message 4645 - A typedef of this name could be defined in a future revision of <stdint.h>   */
enum {intmr_t = 25};             /* Message 4645 - A typedef of this name could be defined in a future revision of <stdint.h>   */
