Bug ID: 110594 Summary: std::variant's converting constructor does not resolve alternative correctly Product: gcc Version: 13.1.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libstdc++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: xgao at nvidia dot com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 55502 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=55502&action=edit minimum repro According to https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/variant/variant, I would expect the attached program to output: int64_t: 1 variant is int However, I am getting: int64_t: 1 variant is complex gcc-9 seems to have the correct behavior for the attached program, however, the implementation of std::variant in gcc-9 has another problem that the following example in that cppreference.com page does not work: std::variant<float, long, double> z = 0; // OK, holds long // float and double are not candidates Thanks to the help of jjsjann123 (https://github.com/jjsjann123), this is potentially related to the SFINAE in the "variant" header: // Helper used to check for valid conversions that don't involve narrowing. template<typename _Ti> struct _Arr { _Ti _M_x[1]; }; seems that this will block int64_t from being selected as shown in https://godbolt.org/z/Gcr4j53rd. However, the following code is totally valid: int64_t x[] = {size_t(1)}; so probably that SFINAE might be wrong.
