以下代码无法为我编译(gcc 4.6.3,Ubuntu 12.04):
#include <inttypes.h>
#include <stdio.h>
static inline void adjustBuffer(const uint8_t *&buf, size_t &bufSize, size_t len)
{
buf += len;
bufSize -= len;
}
uint16_t packInt(uint8_t *&buf, size_t &bufSize, int value)
{
size_t valueSize = sizeof(int);
*reinterpret_cast<int *>(buf) = value;
adjustBuffer(buf, bufSize, valueSize);
return valueSize;
}
bool unpackInt(const uint8_t *&buf, size_t &bufSize, int &value)
{
value = *reinterpret_cast<const int*>(buf);
adjustBuffer(sizeof(int));
return true;
}
int main()
{
static const size_t BufSize = 100;
size_t bufSize = BufSize;
uint8_t buf[BufSize];
uint8_t *buf_ptr = buf;
packInt(buf_ptr, bufSize, 1);
bufSize = BufSize;
int x;
unpackInt(buf, bufSize, x);
return 0;
}
我收到以下错误:

编译器似乎无法将 uint8_t* (uint8_t *&) 的引用分配给 const uint8_t *& (IIRC 是对 const 指针的引用)。首先,我不明白为什么它试图将指针分配给 uint8_t 而不是对指针的引用。其次,转换不应该工作吗?您可以将 uint8_t * 转换为 const uint8_t *,为什么不能转换对这两种类型的引用?
当然,添加一个接受 const uint8_t *& 的 adjustBuffer() 可以,但我想了解原因
