System: Linux karma 2.2.16-22 #1 Tue Aug 22 16:49:06 EDT 2000 i686 unknown
Architecture: i686
host: i686-pc-linux-gnu
build: i686-pc-linux-gnu
target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
configured with: ../egcs/configure --prefix=/usr/local/egcs --enable-threads=posix --enable-long-long
>Description:
The program below doesn't compile: it appears that when used after
an #include <cstring>, then #include <string.h> doesn't get the
names injected into std::, as required by the standard.
gcc 2.95 compiles the example below without complaint, so this
could be considered a regression.
Reversing the order of the inclusions below makes the example
compile, as does adding a `using namespace std;'. (Note, however,
that if one does _both_ of these, one gets a complaint about an ambiguous
call to strchr.)
>How-To-Repeat:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <cstring>
#include <string.h>
const char* foo (const char* s)
{
return strchr (s, 'a');
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ g++ -c x.cc
x.cc: In function `const char* foo(const char*)':
x.cc:6: `strchr' undeclared (first use this function)
x.cc:6: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it
appears in.)
