John Salmon <john.salmon at deshaw dot com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|RESOLVED |REOPENED Resolution|FIXED | --- Comment #12 from John Salmon <john.salmon at deshaw dot com> 2012-10-25 20:12:14 UTC --- Somewhere along the way, the specializations for this bug and for some related type_traits (make_signed, make_unsigned, is_integral) were conditionalized with: #if !defined(__STRICT_ANSI__) && defined(_GLIBCXX_USE_INT128) I think the STRICT_ANSI condition is a mistake. It has always been the case that the availability of the __[u]int128_t types has been independent of the value of __STRICT_ANSI__. Similarly, the specializations of numeric_limits and type_traits should be present regardless of whether __STRICT_ANSI__ is in effect. The check for defined(_GLIBXX_USE_INT128) should be both necessary and sufficient. If I can declare a variable of a non-standard extension-type with some compiler flags in effect, e.g., -std=c++11, then I should also be able to get a sensible answer from std::numeric_limits and <type_traits> with the same compiler flags. This code should produce the same results with -std=g++11 and -std=c++11: drdlogin0039$ cat strict128.cpp #include <type_traits> #include <limits> #include <iostream> int main(int , char **){ __int128_t i; std::cout << "is_specialized: " << std::numeric_limits<__int128_t>::is_specialized << "\n"; std::cout << "is_integral: " << std::is_integral<__int128_t>::value << "\n"; return 0; } drdlogin0039$ g++ -std=gnu++11 strict128.cpp && ./a.out is_specialized: 1 is_integral: 1 drdlogin0039$ g++ -std=c++11 strict128.cpp && ./a.out is_specialized: 0 is_integral: 0 drdlogin0039$
