stdlib: std.mem.zeroes fail to initialize sentinel slice
Zig Version
0.10.0-dev.4185+9c2fb6e18
Steps to Reproduce
const std = @import("std");
test "sentinel slice zeroes" {
const S = struct {
ss: [:0]const u8,
};
var a: S = std.mem.zeroes(S);
try std.testing.expect(a.ss.len == 0);
a.ss = "hello";
try std.testing.expect(a.ss.len == 5);
}
Expected Behavior
test pass.
Actual Behavior
/usr/lib/zig/lib/std/mem.zig:288:28: error: expected type '[:0]const u8', found '*const [0]u8'
return &[_]ptr_info.child{};
