Here's my rationale: SemaCoroutune.cpp contains diagnostics, even before this change, in case of a "badly designed standard library". There's a diagnostic for if coroutine_traits is defined as non-template class, for example. A user would not encounter that diagnostic under any normal circumstance. If they follow the instructions the compiler gives them, they'll include `<experimental/coroutine>` and be done with it. But since we have the code to emit the (unlikely to ever be seen) diagnostic anyway, why not make it as helpful as we can? If a user for some reason defines their own `coroutine_traits`, and their definition only takes a single template argument, and if they define a coroutine with a single return type and a single parameter, then they'll see the diagnostic "too many template arguments for class template". At this point to learn why the heck a `co_return` statement is instantiating a template, they'd have to either read the compiler source code or the standard. My rationale is that we might as well save them this step. All that being said, this change is just a suggestion, I'm not insisting we put it in! I drew some inspiration for this change from your Naked Coroutines talk, in which you used the `co_return` keyword and then followed the instructions the compiler gave you until you had a working program. Since the Clang diagnostic tells me in that case that "std::experimental::coroutine_traits is not defined, you must include <experimental/coroutine>", I wondered what would happen if a user decided to just define their own `std::experimental::coroutine_traits` instead. If they do that, and correct the errors that `coroutine_traits` must be a class and it must be a template, eventually they could find their way to this diagnostic. I agree that it's an unlikely case, so feel free to reject this and I'll close it :) Repository: rC Clang https://reviews.llvm.org/D48863 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
