[gnu.g++.bug] Passing function pointers as parameters.

beshers@cs.cs.columbia.edu (Clifford Beshers) (03/22/89)

Pointers to functions are handled inconsistently when used as
function arguments.  We're using a Sun 4 with g++ version 1.34.1


void F( int i, int (*f)(int) )	// This compiles.
{ }
void G( int (*g)(int) )		// This does not.
{ }



g++ -c -v funcbug.cc
g++ version 1.34.1
 /usr/local/gnu/lib/gcc-cpp -+ -v -undef -D__GNU__ -D__GNUG__ -Dsparc -Dsun -Dunix -D__sparc__ -D__sun__ -D__unix__ funcbug.cc /tmp/cca09295.cpp
