Description David Jung 2003-12-05 20:34:58 UTC 
When trying to use a covariant return type, the compiler gives the following
error at compile time:

robot/sim/SimulatedBasicEnvironment:59: sorry, unimplemented: adjusting
   pointers for covariant returns

(a quick grep of the sources will turn up the offending code)

> g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 3.3.1 20030811 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.1-1)
Comment 1 Andrew Pinski 2003-12-05 20:38:14 UTC 
Most likely fixed for 3.4.
See <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html#missing>:
Covariant return types
Up to (and including) GCC 3.3 we did not implement non-trivial covariant returns. This has been 
addressed for GCC 3.4.
Comment 2 Andrew Pinski 2003-12-05 20:51:24 UTC 
Fixed for 3.4.
