Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: XPCOM, defect)

Description

[Nick Blievers]

This is likely a compiler bug. I can think of no other explanation for it:

Attachment: xpcom/base/nsLeakDetector.cpp

I dont understand why this works!
-	 "Leak Detector", kCLeakDetectorCID, NS_CLEAKDETECTOR_CONTRACTID,
nsLeakDetectorConstructor
+	 "Leak Detector",NS_CLEAKDETECTOR_CID , NS_CLEAKDETECTOR_CONTRACTID,
nsLeakDetectorConstructor
Is the relevant portion.
This is with boehm garbage collection enabled, using MipsPro 7.3.1.3m

[Nick Blievers]

Added related bug.

Comment 3

[Nick Blievers]

Not surprisingly, this works with gcc-2.95.3

Comment 4

[Nick Blievers]

Hmmm, this DOES compile with MipsPro 7.4. So, its almost definetly a compiler bug,
but what do we do with it? Perhaps we can just close this... I'm not sure.
At least there is a record of it now.

Comment 5

[Nick Blievers]

Marking this as WFM, as it does work with the 7.4 compilers.
