std::string::assign

[Richard Kojedzinszky]

Dear All,

I've a strange bug, I've attached a small source which shows my issue.

So, I am trying to assign a string containing an embedded \0 in it. You 
will find that in test() I use std::string::assign to do this, but in two 
cases the results are different.

Please see the output of the attached source, and let me know if I am 
missing something, or it is a bug in g++/stdc++.

Of course, the third form in test() works as expected, but in my 
assumption all should.

With this g++ it behaves bad:
$ g++ -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=g++
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.7/lto-wrapper
Target: x86_64-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../src/configure -v --with-pkgversion='Debian 4.7.1-2' 
--with-bugurl=file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.7/README.Bugs

--build=x86_64-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.7.1 (Debian 4.7.1-2)

But with freebsd's g++:
$ g++ -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: amd64-undermydesk-freebsd
Configured with: FreeBSD/amd64 system compiler
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.2.1 20070831 patched [FreeBSD]

It works fine.


Thanks in advance,
