Strange behavior with static arrays in g++

[Dave Carrigan]

Hi,

I'm using GNU g++, and am declaring a static global array of button IDs,
like so:

  const UInt16 ButtonIDs[] = {
  Button1,
  Button2,
  Button3
  };

However, when I try to do something like FrmGetObjectIndex() using one
of these array values, pose complains about object not in form. 

When I look at the array in gdb, it has the correct values:

  (gdb) print ButtonIDs
  $1 = {1001, 1002, 1003}

But, I added code to examine the array using

  HostFPrintF(fh, The array contains %hu, %hu, %hu\n, 
  ButtonIDs[0], ButtonIDs[2], ButtonIDs[2])

And, I get

  The array contains 1036, 3592, 36354

If I declare the array as

  UInt16 ButtonIDs[3];

and then initialize the array in my frmOpenEvent, my code works
fine. 

Is there anybody who has seen this before and can shed some light on it?

Just wondered if anyone had an answer for this?  I've run into the same
thing.
