Your suggestion was a simple but good idea.

I would like to explain my error:
I wrote a demo program to test my library, and the demo source contains
this line:

namespace Demo
{

  .....


  main()
  {
    cout << "Hello" <<endl;

    .....
	
  }

}//end namespace.

I suppose that you cannot put the function main() inside the namespace
but under linux the compilation works fine and so does the execution.
Under WinNT, with cygnus, again the compilation works fine but the
execution throws the exception mentioned in the first occurence of
ostream opeator '<<' invocation.

This is the gdb output:

(gdb) quit
The program is running.  Exit anyway? (y or n) 

By moving the function main() out of the namespace the problem is
solved,
but I think that the compiler should trace this error.

Has anyone any suggestion o comment about it?
