Bug ID: 57582
Summary: clone is effectively reserved by <iostream> and should
not be
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: libstdc++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: nmm1 at cam dot ac.uk
This is probably java leaking into C++, or something of that nature.
The word "clone" does not occur in the C++ standard.
Under OpenSUSE 11.1, gcc 4.8.0 fails on the following code:
/home/nmm/GCC/bin/g++ -std=c++11 -Wall -Wextra -c -O3 junk.cpp
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class run;
class clone;
class cell {
cell (clone * c, run * r) {}
};
junk.cpp:8:17: error: expected ')' before '*' token
cell (clone * c, run * r) {}
Changing clone to clown and removing <iostream> both cure it.
