#170344 - Compiler bug?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Christoph Franck said:
If the end result of the same snippet of code is different when compiled optimized and unoptimized, then you've probably found a compiler bug.

Depends what you mean by "end result", I think.

In most cases where code "works" without optimisation, but not with, it's because of a flaw in the code - not a bug in the compiler.
