>Description:
std::basic_string<unsigned char>::c_str() doesn't compile
>How-To-Repeat:
Consider the following Shell-script:
#!/bin/sh
cat >x.cc <<__EOF__
# include <string>
typedef unsigned char BYTE;
typedef basic_string<BYTE> bstring;
const BYTE *get_cstr(bstring const &s) { return (s.c_str()); }
__EOF__
set -x
cat x.cc
c++ -c x.cc
if you run that script, you get the following output:
+ cat x.cc
# include <string>
typedef unsigned char BYTE;
typedef basic_string<BYTE> bstring;
const BYTE *get_cstr(bstring const &s) { return (s.c_str()); }
+ c++ -c x.cc
/usr/include/g++/std/bastring.h: In method `const BYTE * basic_string<unsigned char,string_char_traits<unsigned char>,__default_alloc_template<false,0> >::c_str() const':
x.cc:6: instantiated from here
/usr/include/g++/std/bastring.h:338: return to `const BYTE *' from `const char *' changes signedness
>Fix:
Use the following patch:
--- /usr/include/g++/std/bastring.h Mon Apr 24 22:51:45 2000
+++ bastring.h Mon Apr 24 23:01:37 2000
