Hi, The following short program does not compile under g++ 1.27. However, I believe that it is valid ANSI-C, and it works under both gcc and AT&T's CC 1.2.1. After all, a[i] is *obviously* equivalent to i[a] ;-)... ---------------------------------------- #include <stdio.h> main ( int argc, char **argv ) { for ( ; *argv; argv++) { int i; for ( i = 0; i [ *argv ]; i++ ) { putchar( i [ *argv ] ); } putchar( '\n' ); } } ---------------------------------------- The compiler diagnostic is: ---------------------------------------- g++ version 1.27.0 echo use .cc filename extension! use .cc filename extension! /usr/public/lib/g++/gcc-cpp+ -v -I/cd/ua/schmidt/include/ -undef -D__GNU__ -D__GNUG__ -Dsparc -Dsun -Dunix test.C /tmp/cca21732.cpp GNU CPP version 1.27.0 /usr/public/lib/g++/gcc-c++ /tmp/cca21732.cpp -quiet -dumpbase test.C -fchar-charconst -noreg -version -o /tmp/cca21732.s test.C:6: [] applied to non-pointer type test.C:7: [] applied to non-pointer type test.C:7: [] applied to non-pointer type GNU C++ version 1.27.0 (sparc) compiled by GNU C version 1.28. ---------------------------------------- thanks, Doug ---------------------------------------- schmidt@bonnie.ics.uci.edu (ARPA) | Per me si va nella cita dolente. | Per me si va nell' etterno dolore. | Per me si va tra la perduta gente. | Lasciate ogni speranza voi ch' entrate.
