>Description:
The following progra is valid but will not compile under gcc-3.2. I also tried gcc-3.0.2 which has same problem:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
int main(void)
{
unsigned char buffer[2];
buffer[0] = 0;
buffer[1] = 1;
std::ofstream outfile("outfile");
if (!outfile.good())
{
std::cerr << "Error Opening Output File.\n";
return 1;
}
outfile.put(buffer[0]);
//The following line will not compile under gcc-3.2 when
//buffer is of type unsigned char[], but will if it is
//of type char[]. This code compiled fine prior to
//gcc-3.0.
outfile.write(buffer,2);
outfile.close();
return 0;
}
>How-To-Repeat:
Built the attached program using gcc-3.2, gcc-3.0.2, and possible other gcc-3.x compilers.
