Description duser 2022-04-02 20:57:30 UTC 
struct op {
	char text[4];
};
struct op ops[] = {
	{ "123" }
};
char *x[] = { ops[0].text };

Error: static variable `ops` cannot be read at compile time
Comment 1 Walter Bright 2022-04-05 04:21:29 UTC 
Simplified:

struct op {
	char text[4];
};
struct op ops[] = {
	{ "123" }
};

char *y = ops[0].text;
