Sorry, I read too fast. I didn't know sizeof could avoid side effects.


Both typeof and sizeof are compile-time constructs, so there is no opportunity for any expression side effects to occur. Presumably one could do:

typeof(1/0UL)

without ever causing the obvious side effect either (granted, this is a pointless piece of code :-)).
