ostrstream question

[Robert Kerr <kerrr@et.byu.edu>]

Hi all,
I'm having some problems converting my app to run under linux.  It runs
alright under SGI, HP-UX, Solaris and WinNT, but it crashes beautifully
under linux.

Anyway, I have a member variable called journalString of type ostrstream.
I instantiate it so:
    journalString = new ostrstream();
    journalString->rdbuf()->setbuf(NULL, 50);

but when I try to use the << operator with it, it Segfaults.
Example crashes:

*journalString << ends;
*journalString << s << ' '; where s is a const char *
*journalString << name;  where name is a const char *

Am I using ostrstream wrong?  Any ideas?

Thanks
