OK, it's late but here is the latest.

This code with result declared as volatile PRINTS the correct value of "result".
However "cout" outputs value of 1 - that is ONE.

After removing "volatile" from declaration of result - cout will output 4.

I'll let you gentlemen decide where is my problem , it the meantime I am initializing the pointer to zero and will be checking for absence of zero and hoping computer is adding the values correctly.

BTW the correct additions of both values was never my concern , hence I did not care about the uninitialized value of "base" and was using "int" to test.
.



<pre lang="c++">/*
uint32_t *base = 0;
uint32_t offset = 1;
volatile uint32_t *result;
result = base + offset;
printf("Volatile result pointer = %p\n", result);

*/

uint32_t *base = 0;
uint32_t offset = 1;
volatile uint32_t *result;
result = base + offset;

cout << "base " << base << '\n';
cout << "offset " << offset << '\n';

THIS LINE IS AN UNRESOLVED ISSUE
OUTPUT IS CORRECT WHEN NO VOLATILE KEYWORD IS USED
result = 1 WHEN VOLATILE IS USED

cout << "result " << result << '\n';


this always prints correct value

printf("Volatile result pointer = %p\n", result);

</pre>

PS
ill try "bad compiler" in the morning.
