As far as I can determine, even a simple example does not work for gcc 12: #include<string> #include<cassert> constexpr bool foo() { std::string str2{"abcwe"}; return str2.size()==5; } static_assert(foo()); int main() { assert(foo()); } As far as I know, there is no gcc 13 for Cygwin yet, but on Linux and FreeBSD this does compile with gcc 13. -Dimitry -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
