Re: [Dev-C++] function name conflict

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

Nothing wrong with using constructors as in:
    string a(x);
    string b(y);

Your code will build correctly, if you write:

    string s3 =3D ::plus(s1,s2);

You problems is that you got into troubles with the backwards-compatible
work-around:
    using std::plus;
in the gcc header files, and needed to specify that you wanted to use your
implementation of plus, and not the implementation already available in
the std namespace.
