Summary: symbols not kept in std namespace Product: gcc Version: 4.6.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libstdc++ AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: domin...@poczta.onet.pl Created attachment 24778 --> http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=24778 preprocessed file When I include <cmath> library the 'omega' symbol gets to global namespace making me unable to define my own global variable(or constant) of the same name. What I expect is all the symbols from included standard libraries stay in std namespace. code (gamma_gcc.cpp): #include <cmath> const double gamma=0; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { return 0; } command: g++ -v -save-temps gcc_gamma.cpp 2>log.txt log.txt: Using built-in specs.
