Hello,

I'm trying to do this transformation,
from:
    const WCHAR wstr[] = {'u','t','f','1','6','
','s','t','r','i','n','g','\0'};
to:
    const WCHAR wstr[] = u"utf16 string";

I had hoped to be able to use an expression list for the array
initializer, but that produces a parse error. I know that technically an
array initializer is not an expression list, but it looks like one.
Is there another metavariable that I can use instead?


A way to workaround that would be to use something like:
@r@
typedef WCHAR;
identifier wstr;
constant ch;
position p;
@@
 const WCHAR wstr[] = { ..., ch@p, ..., '\0' };


That would make the subsequent script:python rule run once for each
char. With some surprises though:
- The initializers ch get sorted before script:python runs. Thus the
position is needed to undo the sorting.
- More surprisingly, without @p the initializers get even deduplicated.

This workaround is doable but tedious. Before I go down that rabbit hole
I prefer to check if there's a better alternative.

thanks
bye
