>Description:
The following program does not compile:
int main(void)
{
int tab[011];
tab[09]=1; /* error here only */
tab[10]=02;
}
Is it a legal program or is there some subtle C/C++ rule that say it
is not ?
>How-To-Repeat:
$ gcc essai.c
essai.c: In function `main':
essai.c:5: numeric constant contains digits beyond the radix
The same error happens both with gcc and g++. I tested versions
2.95.x and 3.0.x.
