------- Additional Comments From llib at computer dot org 2004-11-26 02:56 ------- int &a = a; i don't believe this is valid code. i believe g++ should reject the code. various comp.std.c++ people agree with me.
8.3.2/4 states "[...] A reference shall be initialized to refer to a valid object or function." surely a (the right-hand-side) is not a valid object or function since it has not been initialised, so the code is ill-formed. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18635
