Bug ID: 96592 Summary: Tuple element w/ member reference to incomplete template type rejected Product: gcc Version: 10.2.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: cuzdav at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 49049 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=49049&action=edit source as shown in preview, g++10.2 preprocessed code, and the error messages This code seems a regression introduced in g++ 10.1, is still in 10.2 and remains in the trunk. It works on 9.x and as far back as g++ 6, plus all versions of clang since 6, icc, msvc, etc. There are many independent changes that can make it work, including: * making SomeQuery constructor a template constructor (on SessionU) * changing the reference to a pointer * explicitly declaring Session as an incomplete type and not using templates #include <tuple> template <typename SessionT> struct SomeQuery { SessionT& session_; SomeQuery(SessionT& session) : session_(session) {} }; template <typename SessionT> struct Handler { std::tuple<SomeQuery<SessionT>> queries_; Handler(SessionT& session) : queries_(session) {} }; struct Session { Handler<Session> handler_; Session() : handler_{*this} {} }; int main() { Session session; } It looks like the tuple class is doing some concept checking that isn't quite working, but I haven't dug deeply enough to determine if it's a library or underlying compiler issue.
