Easy enought to try yourself (/void blah/int main/ and add return 0;) :-)

    $ ls -l a.out
    ls: a.out: No such file or directory
    $ CC voidp.cxx 
    voidp.cxx: In function `int main()':
    voidp.cxx:6: invalid conversion from `void*' to `int*'
    $ ls -l a.out
    ls: a.out: No such file or directory
