Package: g++-3.0 Version: 3.0.2-10 This error is preventing ftpgrab from compiling on hppa. The test cases below do not exhibit the same behavior on ia64.
fgfilegrab.cc:75: choosing `char FGString::operator[](unsigned int) const' over `operator[]' fgfilegrab.cc:75: because worst conversion for the former is better than worst conversion for the latter I isolated the code in question into a test case, and found some interesting results. When I stripped the FGString class down to just one constructor and the operator[] method, I still saw the error. When I stripped down the FGString header file to just those two declarations, the code compiled. I'm attaching a .tar.gz file with the code in question, along with the .ii and .s files from the failed compile. Note that if you replace "opov.h" with "simple.h", the code compiles.
