--- Comment #2 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The releases/gcc-9 branch has been updated by Jonathan Wakely <r...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:e7406c364496dae51ef294b5720923fe4a1dfccb commit r9-8792-ge7406c364496dae51ef294b5720923fe4a1dfccb Author: Jonathan Wakely <jwak...@redhat.com> Date: Sat Mar 21 21:51:07 2020 +0000 libstdc++: Fix path::generic_string allocator handling (PR 94242) It's not possible to construct a path::string_type from an allocator of a different type. Create the correct specialization of basic_string, and adjust path::_S_str_convert to use a basic_string_view so that it is independent of the allocator type. PR libstdc++/94242 * include/bits/fs_path.h (path::_S_str_convert): Replace first parameter with basic_string_view so that strings with different allocators can be accepted. (path::generic_string<C,T,A>()): Use basic_string object that uses the right allocator type. * testsuite/27_io/filesystem/path/generic/94242.cc: New test. * testsuite/27_io/filesystem/path/generic/generic_string.cc: Improve test coverage.
