[Effective-cpp] Item 19: Understand the origin of temporary o bjects

[Adrian Fagg]

I thought that I'd better read that item...

Page 99 has

char buffer[MAX_STRING_LEN];

...
cin ... >> setw(MAX_STRINGLEN) >> buffer;

...
then use buffer as a char * to create a string...

Now, I always run away when I see C++ streams, so I never quite know what's
what with the things.
However, in this curious mixture of C and C++, the above looks suspicious to
me - is buffer big enough?

Regards,

Adrian
