The syntax of the programming language "C++" includes the syntax of the
programming language "C"
and also it should handle such common functions as "strcat".
So if I define variables in a such way:
CHAR SQL1[150], SQL2[150], SQL_date_payment[10], SQL_date_begin[10],
SQL_date_end[10], SQL_result[100];
instead of:
CHAR SQL_date_payment[10],SQL_date_begin[10], SQL_date_end[10], SQL1[150],
SQL2[150], SQL_result[100];
(where variables for dates which I form using "strcpy" and "strcat" functions
stay after SQL1)
it should work without problems, because of programming language syntax which
is a standart.
But it works so, that SQL1 partially overwrites value of SQL_date_begin and
values are
not such as expected.
I never heard, that the "C" language is outdated. The "C++" is just another
standart which includes
the syntax of "C".
So I consider it is as an GCC error which should be fixed, also because all
standart libraries
come along with GCC.
