The attached preprocessed source when compiled with -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG encounters
a runtime assert at the final call to splice. According to
http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/List.html, all iterators remain valid after a merge
operation. I believe that libstdc++ is not updating the _M_sequence members of
the safe iterators merged into list1.
I've also attached unpreprocessed source with comments indicating the problem.
To reproduce the problem:
% g++ -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG list.ii
% ./a.out
/usr/include/c++/4.2/debug/list:350:error: attempt to splice an iterator
from a different container.
Objects involved in the operation:
iterator "__i" @ 0x0xbfd5ea30 {
type =
N11__gnu_debug14_Safe_iteratorINSt6__norm14_List_iteratorIiEENSt7__debug4listIiSaIiEEEEE
(mutable iterator);
state = dereferenceable;
references sequence with type `NSt7__debug4listIiSaIiEEE' @ 0x0xbfd5ea30
}
sequence "__x" @ 0x0xbfd5e9c4 {
type = NSt7__debug4listIiSaIiEEE;
}
Aborted
