[Mingw-users] std::istream & istream_iterators

[Foster G. <gar...@si...>]

'ello,

I am trying to use some code which allows you to launch programs from your
code, its called libexecstream, it looks okay. Now, it provides something
like ...

class c_exec_stream
{
  std::istream & out();
  std::ostream & in()
};


So, I try to do ...

c_exec_stream * p_exec_stream = new c_exec_stream("c:\\app.exe");


Then, I try ...

std::copy	(
		std::istream_iterator(p_exec_stream->out()),
		std::istream_iterator(),
		std::ostream_iterator(std::cout)
	);


Which ought to work right? Well I get ...

file.cc: In constructor `myclass::myclass()':
file.cc:48: internal compiler error: in finish_class_member_access_expr, at
cp/typeck.c:1941
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.


I've tried variations, like copy to a vector, or a string, it has the same
result in each case. What is going off? Should this compile?

Cheers all,


Gaz
