 |

hi
the following may be offtopic.
gcc 3.3.3 compiler throws error like
.....: error: invalid in-class
initialization of static data member of non-integral type `const
char[]'
...... error: looser throw specifier for virtual void X::y()
etc
for the same source gcc 2.95.2 doesn't throw any error. What could be
the reason ?
1 more thing...-fno-rtti doesn't have any affect on gcc 3.3.3. In both
the cases -frtti and -fno-rtti, code generated are same.
did i miss any patch or what is the recent gcc version which works ?
Thanks

I know of one reason: 3.3.3 is more Standard-compliant than 2.95.2.

Ask in gnu.gcc.help. Adding or not adding RTTI has no effect if your
code doesn't use RTTI (typeid operator and so on)

Maybe just because you did the things it's complaining about. Newer
versions of gcc are much more standard compliant than older ones,
resulting in more errors if your code is invalid.

Are you actually using any rtti in your code?

They should all work well.

the above piece of code produces the same object code with -frrti and
-fno-rtti option.

Also, gcc fails to link c++ object codes, it is the g++ which is able |
to link.

That's because it doesn't use RTTI. You seem to be confusing exceptions
with RTTI.
Try this instead:
#include <iostream>
struct A { virtual ~A() {} };
struct B: public A {};
int main()
{
A* a = new B();
std::cout << typeid(a).name() << std::endl;
delete a;
}

Yes. That's intended. gcc won't link in the C++ standard library.

Oops. Of course, it would have to be:
std::cout << typeid(*a).name() << std::endl;
