What would this statement yield?
void *p = malloc(sizeof(void));
Edit: An extension to the question.
If sizeof(void) yields 1 in GCC compiler, then 1 byte of memory is allocated and the pointer p points to that byte and would p++ be incremented to 0x2346? Suppose p was 0x2345. I am talking about p and not *p.
If you are using GCC and you are not using compilation flags that remove compiler specific extensions, then sizeof(void) is 1. GCC has a nonstandard extension that does that.
In general, void is a incomplete type, and you cannot use sizeof for incomplete types.
while sizeof(void) perhaps makes no sense in itself, it is important when you're doing any pointer math.
eg.
void *p;
while(...)
p++;
If sizeof(void) is considered 1 then this will work. If sizeof(void) is considered 0 then you hit an infinite loop.
