Bug #: 51664
Summary: comparison incorrectly treated as template
instantiation
Classification: Unclassified
Product: gcc
Version: 4.6.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: timon.g...@gmx.ch
The following valid C++ code is rejected by GCC 4.6.1:
---
template<class T> bool foo(T x){return x.foo<1;}
---
$ g++ bug.cpp
---
bug.cpp: In function ‘bool foo(T)’:
bug.cpp:1:42: error: parse error in template argument list
---
(The following similar code compiles:
template<class T> bool bar(T x){return x.foo<1;}
while the compilation of this code shows another instance of this broken
behavior:
template<class T> bool foo(T x){return x.qux<1;}
template<class T> bool bar(T x){return x.foo<1;} )
further details:
$ cat bug.cpp
template<class T> bool foo(T x){return x.foo<1;}
$ g++ -save-temps bug.cpp
bug.cpp: In function ‘bool foo(T)’:
bug.cpp:1:42: error: parse error in template argument list
$ cat bug.ii
# 1 "bug.cpp"
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command-line>"
# 1 "bug.cpp"
template<class T> bool foo(T x){return x.foo<1;}
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
