const C Struct Array within Struct Array

Question

I am attempting to create a const structure in C but can't seem to figure it out.

typedef struct sA{
 char* fname;
 char* lname;
} A;

To use as an Array:

A list[] = {{"david","smith"},{"john","smith"}};

However, if I have use a second struct:

typedef struct sB{
 A inList[]; 
} B;

I want to define a const structure as:

B newList[] = {
 {
   {"david","smith"}
 },
 {
   {"john","doe"}
   {"joe","doe"}
 }
};

len(newList[0].inList) is different from len(newList[1].inList). This can be built dynamically, but how would you build this into a const variable in C?

Answer 1

All the objects of a struct will always have same size. What you are trying do will result in different object of a struct having different sizes, which is not possible. So what you are trying to do is not correct
