Compiler Error C2348

  • Article

'type name' : is not a C-style aggregate, cannot be exported in embedded-IDL

To place a struct in a .idl file with the export attribute, the struct must contain only data.

The following sample generates C2348:

// C2348.cpp
// C2348 error expected
[ module(name="SimpleMidlTest") ];

[export]
struct Point {
   // Delete the following two lines to resolve.
   Point() : m_i(0), m_j(0) {}
   Point(int i, int j) : m_i(i), m_j(j) {}
   
   int m_i;
   int m_j;
};
