When the following code is compiled with G++ 1.35.0/Sun3, you
get the error message shown below which says that a float was
expected. That's wrong. A double was expected. Apparently
the compiler doesn't know the difference.
----------------------------------------------------------------
// Check that type-mismatch messages are reasonable
int function (double d)
{
return 0;
}
struct s {
} s_object;
int main ()
{
function (s_object);
return 0;
}
