Bug #: 55244
Summary: char_traits compares characters as though
unsigned
Classification: Unclassified
Product: gcc
Version: 4.5.3
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: libstdc++
AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: g...@danielrhouck.com
Created attachment 28641
--> http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=28641
The preprocessed source code briefly demonstrating this behavior.
According to the C++ standard, char_traits::compare's value is defined in terms
of char_traits::lt's. The unspecialized version of the char_traits template
implements this correctly. However, char_traits redefines compare based
on __builtin_memcmp, and does not work correctly for characters not in the
range [0, 127]. Specifically, it compares characters as though they were
unsigned instead of signed.
The attached preprocessed code was produced by "g++ -v -save-temps testcase.cpp
-o testcase" executed on a simple file. The output of gcc is below:
Using built-in specs.
