Hi all,
when I try to compile the following simple code:
#include <iostream>
int main () {
if (index > 0) {
std::cout << "Here" << std::endl;
}
return 0;
}
using g++ 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13) version and also g++ version 4.1.1
(Fedora core 5), I don't have any warnings or errors during the
compilation and the executable works fine, just prints "Here" to
stdout.
I suppose it works, using instead of "index", any other extern
symbols defined in string.h or strings.h (simply the "compiler"
compares the address of such functions with a null).
My question is is it a standard behavior ? Should string.h be
included in iostream ?
