Bug in egcs ?

[Laurent Deniau <Laurent dot Deniau at cern dot ch>]

Hello,

egcs doesn't complain on the following code:

template <typename T>
class Object {
public:

  // ...

  Object&
  operator = (Object<T> const& e) {
    const_cast<T>(_e) = e;
    return *this;
  }

private:
  T _e;
};


According to the CD2, we should have write :

const_cast<T&>(_e) = e;

in order to get reference to _e.

with best regards,
