Re: [Dev-C++] Win XP bug or not bug?

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

Sorry, my language skills aren't up to a non-english answer...

However:
Programmer bug: yes
XP bug: no

No good OS allows reading from an address the program doesn't own, in this
case address 10.

The following is ok, since the address of a is within the application
memory:

int a =3D 23;
int *lolo =3D &a;
printf("%d",*lolo);

Old 16-bit DOS compilers would have accepted code that played around with
the pointer. Not because it is valid code, but because MS-DOS can't detect
the error.
