is end being a global variable specific to the C language (which i doubt)
? to
gcc ? to cygwin ? to windows ? or is it ALWAYS the case ?
It's not always the case. I was able to compile/run the test program on
Solaris, with three different compilers,

hi,
is end being a global variable specific to the C language (which i doubt)
? to
gcc ? to cygwin
hi,
i think i have found a bug, either that or i am very stupid. the bug is a
gcc bug and it is cygwin specific (cygwin-1.3.10-1 gcc-2.95.3-5) and the
following code causes a seg fault:
---
int end;
int main ()
{
end = 1;
return 0;
}
The global 'end' is a reserved word. It refers to the end of the data
area. That means you can't use it as a global variable in your program.
is this reserved word cygwin specific ? or is it a reserved word for all gcc ?
thanks for your help.
cheers,
alex
