Bug #: 54020
Summary: [c++0x] incorrectly accepted constexpr functions
Classification: Unclassified
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Tested on a somewhat recent trunk build as well as 4.7-some branch version.
// Preliminaries.
extern int nonconst_func(int);
constexpr int identity(int x) { return x; }
constexpr int zero() { return identity(0); }
constexpr int one() { return identity(1); }
// Correctly accepted.
constexpr int three = one() ? 3 : nonconst_func(0);
// Incorrectly accepted. See [dcl.constexpr] #5:
// For a constexpr function, if no function argument values exist
// such that the function invocation sub-stitution would produce a
// constant expression (5.19), the program is ill-formed; no diagnostic
// required.
constexpr int bogus() { return zero () ? 3 : nonconst_func(0); }
// Correctly rejected (not sure why).
constexpr int correct_error() { return nonconst_func(0); }
// Correctly rejected.
constexpr int z = bogus();
// This is also correctly rejected.
constexpr int correct_failure() { return 0 ? 3 : nonconst_func(0); }
