[STL] Segmentation fault on using std::sort

[Manfred]

Hello

I am new to template programming, so i tried the 'example' from
http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/functors.html.
I can compile the code but when i want to run the program
I get a segmentation fault when the part of std::sort(...) is
reached, but I don't understand why.
------------ Code start ---------------------

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>

struct less : public std::binary_function<double, double, bool> {
bool operator()(double x, double y) { return x < y; }
};

int main(){
std::vector<double> V(50);

std::generate(V.begin(), V.end(), rand);

std::sort(V.begin(), V.end(), less());
}

--------------- Code end -----------------------

thanks in advance

Manfred

PS: I am using linux and gcc 3.4.4 but this shouldn't be the problem
afaik

I doubt that this code compiles. You're missing some parentheses after
function and method/constructor calls. After adding them everything should
work fine. Maybe you can post the actual (compiling) code you're using.

Huh?!

Your newsreader must have screwed up what i posted.
But here once again:

------------ Code start ---------------------

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>

struct less : public std::binary_function<double, double, bool> {
bool operator()(double x, double y) { return x < y; }
};

int main(){
std::vector<double> V(50);

std::generate(V.begin(), V.end(), rand);

std::sort(V.begin(), V.end(), less());
}
--------------- Code end -----------------------

Thanks I tried gcc 3.3.4 and it works :)
Strange thing. Maybe my gcc or libstdc++ is damaged. :(

the latest stl files can be downloaded from sgi. do a 'gcc -v' to check
where gcc looks for the c++ includes.

cheers,

I have the newest g++ includes, because i built gcc 3.4.4 and 3.3.4 from
sources. I'll ask for it in the forums of my distro.

Thanks anyway

Are you using an older version of ZoneAlarm, by chance?

By the way, the new Google Groups seems to be FUBAR (at least on here) --
so the messages in that thread keep repeating and repeating and
repeating...
