[Bug c++/34362] New: Segmentation fault while using array of character pointers.

["stevekoe at hotmail dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

The following code produces segmentation fault at runtime.
-----------------------------CODE---------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
main()
{
        char * strArray[2];
        printf("Enter 1:");
        scanf("%s",strArray[0]);
        printf("Enter 2:");
        scanf("%s",strArray[1]);
}

However the following code does not,
-----------------------------CODE---------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
main()
{
        char * strArray[2];
        printf("Enter 1:");
        scanf("%s",strArray[0]);
        printf("Enter 2:");
        scanf("%s",strArray[1]);
        int x = 0;
}

-----------------------------ERROR--------------------------------------------
Enter 1:hello
