I believe the following program illustrates a bug in g++ 2.2.2.


// grt.c - g++ reference test

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

// Types.
typedef char  tName [100];

// Local data.
tName MyName;
char *MyNewName = "I like summer best";

// Forward declarations.
void func (tName & Name);

int main ()
    {
    (void)strcpy (MyName, "too bad it's winter");

    func (MyName);         // BROKEN HERE, g++ 2.2.2 reports...
                           //   grt.c:20: cannot convert to a reference type

    func (&MyName);        // This works !!

    func (MyNewName);      // This works !!

    return 0;
    }

void func (tName & Name)
    {
    printf ("func: name is %s.\n", Name);
    }
