>Description:
compiler outputs a warning on "Fran\xE7ais" static string and
compiled it as string "Franzis".
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile this program and run:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
const char *french1 = "Fran\xE7ais";
const char *french2 = "Fran" "\xE7" "ais";
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
printf("%s: \"%c\", %d\n", french1, french1[4], (int)french1[4]);
printf("%s: \"%c\", %d\n", french2, french2[4], (int)french2[4]);
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The second string should be the same as the first one. But the
outputs are different.
