BUG: stdin not a constant

[Jim Sopchak]

Petdr,

Having dealt with the same problem in a port before, I've found the best
way to do it (IMHO), is to quickly identify all such globals (static or
otherwise) from the compiler/linker errors and initialize them first
thing in main() before any use.  Think of it as being the same
responsibility you have when initializing member variables in a
constructor.


#include <stdio.h>

static FILE *out = (FILE *)NULL ;

void my_out_func(char *szMsg)
{
	fprintf(out, "%s", szMsg);
}

void main(void)
{
	out = stdout ;
	fprintf(out, "hello world\n");
	my_out_func("...so cold 'n cruel.\n") ;
}

Bon apetite,

Jim
