Steve,
I tried this as follows:
enum BODY { SUN, MOON, STAR } ;
enum PLANET { EARTH, VENUS, MARS, PLUTO } ;
int main ( void )
{
BODY body ;
body = static_cast < BODY > ( 3 ) ; // does not give error.
body = static_cast < BODY > ( PLUTO ) ; // does not give error.
}
but it still does not throw an error even though the enum being casted
*to* does not contain an identifier equivalent to the value actually
being casted, whether a primitive integer or an identifier belonging to
another enum.
Don't you think this is a GCC bug?
