non-trivial designated initializers not supported

the order of initialization needs to be in the exact order of declaration.

typedef struct FOO
{
    int a;
    int b;
    int c;
}FOO;

FOO foo   = {.a = 1, .b = 2}; // OK
FOO foo1  = {.a = 1};         // OK
FOO foo2  = {.b = 2, .a = 1}; // Error sorry, unimplemented: non-trivial designated initializers not supported
FOO foo3  = {.a = 1, .c = 2}; // Error sorry, unimplemented: non-trivial designated initializers not supported

I understand that this means that the compiler has no support for name-oriented, out-of-order, member initialization.

Need to initialize the struct in the old fashioned way. I keep the variable names for clarity, but I have to initialize them in order, and not skip a variable.

I can stop the initialization at any variable, but can’t initialize variables that come of that.
