Description
Description
Static class member initializer not implemented for SPIR-V.
Steps to Reproduce
dxc -T ps_6_0 -E main -O0 -spirv
class S {
float4 b;
};
class T {
static S N;
};
S T::N = {1., 2., 3., 4.};
float4 main(float4 input: A) : SV_Target {
return 1.0;
}

Actual Behavior
<source>:11:10: error: initializer for type 'S' unimplemented
S T::N = {1., 2., 3., 4.};
Succeeds with DXIL backend.
Environment
- DXC version: 8e9cefa1d5074142a05641f694e58b68812b35a0
- Host Operating System: Linux

Research direction
Start by running the reported dxc command with the HLSL reproducer and compare its SPIR-V failure with the successful DXIL backend result. Trace the SPIR-V handling of the static class member initializer for S T::N; done means the reproducer compiles successfully to SPIR-V with the initialized values preserved.
