C89 structs

Hi /prog/. When I program C I usually just use whatever features gcc allows without really worrying about different standards. However, I am now trying to learn strict C89. I know that it's no longer "standard" C, but I want to learn it anyways.

typedef struct {
    int a, b;
} s;

So normally, if I wanted to return an s from a function I would just use return (s) {1, 2};, but apparently that's not allowed in C89. So right now I'm using
s res;
res.a = 1;
res.b = 2;
return res;

Is there a better/shorter way to do this?

Thanks.

Of course it does. If they leave the front page, readers don't see them, so the discussion ends.
