--- Comment #2 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Patrick Palka <ppa...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:ffe9c0a0d3564a6083ea6194eb3374a89c29c085 commit r12-7656-gffe9c0a0d3564a6083ea6194eb3374a89c29c085 Author: Patrick Palka <ppa...@redhat.com> Date: Tue Mar 15 08:50:24 2022 -0400 c++: extraneous access error with ambiguous lookup [PR103177] When a lookup is ambiguous, lookup_member still attempts to check access of the first member found before diagnosing the ambiguity and propagating the error, and this may cause us to issue an extraneous access error as in the testcase below (for B1::foo). This patch fixes this by swapping the order of the ambiguity and access checks within lookup_member. In passing, since the only thing that could go wrong during lookup_field_r is ambiguity, we might as well hardcode that in lookup_member and get rid of lookup_field_info::errstr. PR c++/103177 gcc/cp/ChangeLog: * search.cc (lookup_field_info::errstr): Remove this data member. (lookup_field_r): Don't set errstr. (lookup_member): Check ambiguity before checking access. Simplify accordingly after errstr removal. Exit early upon error or empty result. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: * g++.dg/lookup/ambig6.C: New test.
