Description marko 2004-11-22 22:38:01 UTC 
[Converted from Gnats 1817]

If a class is defined in a namespace the resulting typedef cannot be used in typecasts. Instead, gdb complains about a syntax error.

Release:
6.2

Environment:
i686-pc-linux-gnu
gcc version 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)

How-To-Repeat:
Compile with -ggdb. Start gdb.

The command "ptype X::Y" works. However, this command results in a syntax error:

  p (X::Y *) 0
