iostream.h was the old (pre-standard) name for it.

You are provably wrong:

$ c++ -c /tmp/1.cc
In file included from /usr/local/gcc/lib/.../iostream.h:31,
from /tmp/1.cc:1:
/usr/local/gcc/lib/gcc/.../include/c++/3.4.3/backward/backward_warning.h:32:2:
warning: #warning This file includes at least one deprecated or antiquated
header. Please consider using one of the 32 headers found in section 17.4.1.2
of the C++ standard. Examples include substituting the <X> header for the
<X.h> header for C++ includes, or <iostream> instead of the deprecated header
<iostream.h>. To disable this warning use -Wno-deprecated.

* Chris Croughton:

<iostream.h> from pre-standard days was not standardized
(it could contain anything), and did not provide the modern iostreams.
The standard <iostream> header has never had another name.


I stand corrected.

g++ 3.4.3 (and 3.4.2) is, in other words, incorrect in this regard.

Oh well...

1)
What do you return here?

2)
What takes place here? What order?

Try to answer question 2) first and then 1). Hint: a = x.

I think it would be a good exercise to figure this one out by yourself.
You may get some help by changing the myFun to:

int myFun(int&, int&)

Good luck. If you get stuck, write again.

These are unneeded technicalities, however as someone else mentioned in this thread, it is
about compiler-specific facilities that are deprecated and not ISO C++ facilities. The
compiler is free to consider some older of its own facilities as deprecated.
