Rule 11.9: Does array initialization to 0 violate Rule 11.9?

[misra-c]

There is no null pointer constant in this example and hence no violation of rule 11.9.

However there is a violation of rule 9.3 since the array is only partially initialized.

Valid initializations would be:

Code:

uint8 myBuffer[ 8 ] = { 0u,0u,0u,0u,0u,0u,0u,0u };
uint8 myBuffer[ 8 ] = { 0 };

The use of "0" is a special case which is permitted by exception in rule 9.3 and 10.3.
