So I'm stepping through the ContainerTestCaseData (const ContainerFunc &func, const ContainerTestCase &tcase) constructor as shown in the following stack frame:
(gdb) where #0 ContainerTestCaseData<UserClass>::ContainerTestCaseData (this=0x7fffe750, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]) at /amd/devco/lemings/work/stdcxx/trunk.gofish/tests/include/23.containers. h:280 Here's part of the ctor: (gdb) list 276 char buf [256]; 277 278 strlen_ = sizeof (buf); 279 char* str = rw_expand (buf, tcase.str, tcase.str_len, &strlen_); 280 str_ = T::from_char (str, strlen_); 281 if (str != buf) 282 delete[] str; Notice anything unusual around line 280? Here's a hint: tests/include/rw_value.h: 228 // construct an array of objects of type UserClass each initialized 229 // from the corresponding element of the character array 230 // when the last argument is true and the character array 231 // is not sorted in ascending order the function fails by 232 // returning 0 233 static UserClass* 234 from_char (const char*, _RWSTD_SIZE_T = _RWSTD_SIZE_MAX, 235 bool = false); Now I'm sorta new to this UserClass and container testing but but WTF is going on here? char* and UserClass* are convertible certainly but clearly not compatible. Brad.
