Bug report

["Michael Kochetkov" <Michael dot Kochetkov at trustworks dot com>]

Hi all,
here is what gcc have asked me:
Windows NT Workstation 4.0 SP 5
Notes:
X<int> x works.
If X is not parameterized it works with an exception been caught (T t
becomes A t of course). Is it Ok? I mean 15.3/16.

I have discussed it in the newsgroup comp.lang.c++. Here is the code from
another my reply. I was able to compile it with KAI C++. Your previous
version core dumped, but new one is "confused by earlier errors, bailing
out" only. Here is the code:

#include <iostream>


class v_pointer
{
    public:

        // ...other overloaded functions...

        template <typename T>
        operator T* ()
        {
            return (T*)m_pointer;
        }

        template <typename T>
        v_pointer& operator = (T* t)
        {
        	m_pointer = t;
            return *this;
        }

	template<typename T>
	v_pointer& operator++ (int )


	    m_pointer = (void*)((unsigned int)m_pointer + sizeof(T));
	    return *this;
	}

	template<typename T>
	v_pointer& operator++ ()


	    m_pointer = (void*)((unsigned int)m_pointer + sizeof(T));
	    return *this;
	}


	    private:

        void* m_pointer;
};


int
main()
{
	char* s = "Hello there!";
	v_pointer p;
	p = s;
	p.operator++<char>();

	std::cout << (char*)p << std::endl;
	return 0;
}

Please let me know if this is not the proper place to submit this bug
report, and where I should do so in that event.

With regards,
Michael Kochetkov.
