Consider this program:
1 namespace Foo {
2 };
3
4 class Foo {
5 };
6
7 int main() {
8 class Foo1 : public Foo {
9 };
10 Foo1 my_Foo1;
11 Foo my_foo;
12 return 0;
13 }
I would have expected an error message for line 4.
Instead, I can on line 8 derive a class from Foo and instanciate
it on line 10.
However, on line 11, Foo ceases to be a class and becomes a namespace:
Foo.C: In function 'int main()':
Foo.C:11: error: expected primary-expression before 'my_foo'
Foo.C:11: error: expected `;' before 'my_foo'
Somewhat funny, isn't it? (VC++ 6.0 gets it right, I must sadly admit).
Best,
