>Description:
The __attribute__((stdcall)) is ignored on methods defined inside the class declaration. This applies to static as well as non-static methods.
The code generated for A::foo() and A::bar() in the attached test case clearly shows this:
while A::foo() correclty returns via "ret $4", A::bar() uses a plain "ret".
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile stdcall.cpp with g++ -S -o stdcall.S stdcall.cpp and compare the code for both methods.
>Fix:
Workaround: always define "stdcall"-methods outside the class declaration.
