designator order for field '__file::flags' does not match the declaration order in 'FILE'

I'm trying to compile a binary with avr-g++ using this tutorial for UART, but during compilation, I get the following error:

main.cpp:50:20: error: designator order for field '__file::flags' does not match declaration order in 'FILE'
   50 | FILE uart_output = FDEV_SETUP_STREAM(uart_putchar, NULL, _FDEV_SETUP_WRITE);

I've made sure that I'm using /usr/avr/include/stdio.h, and attempted to use C++20 in light of the following:

Why does C++11 not support designated initializer lists as C99?

Yet I have not been able to have any success in compiling (or even understanding the problem). I have also attempted to replicate the example in the avr stdio.h implementation source file (line 152) but also had no success.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

As it appears, FDEV_SETUP_STREAM is not ready for C++, see also example non-trivial designated initializers not supported for the reason behind the error.

What works for me is to re-define FDEV_SETUP_STREAM to include all components of struct __file in their respective order:

#undef FDEV_SETUP_STREAM
#define FDEV_SETUP_STREAM(p, g, f) \
    {                              \
        .buf = NULL,               \
        .unget = 0,                \
        .flags = f,                \
        .size = 0,                 \
        .len = 0,                  \
        .put = p,                  \
        .get = g,                  \
        .udata = 0                 \
    }

However, the behaviour of the compiler appears to be not really consistent about when that error is raised.

Here is the according AVR-LibC issue #898 fixed in AVR-LibC v2.2.0.

Rearrange your fields to match the order in the documentation.

if the order in the doc is

.p, .r,

your code must follow that order.
