These bugs are considered duplicate cases of PR51851 which has been suspended

it deserves a long comment to explain.
Many people believed the root cause of this family of bugs is related with
the nature of how and when the array type is converted to pointer type during
function signature is calculated. This is true, but we may need to go into
details
to understand the exact reason.
There is a pattern for these bugs(PR101402,PR102033,PR102034,PR102039). In the
template function declaration, the function parameter is consisted of a "const"
followed by a typename-type which is actually an array type. According to
standard, function signature is calculated by dropping so-called
"top-level-cv-qualifier". As a result, the templater specialization complains
no matching to declaration can be found because specialization has const and
template function declaration doesn't have const which is dropped as mentioned.
Obviously the template function declaration should NOT drop the const. But why?
Let's review the procedure of standard first.
(https://timsong-cpp.github.io/cppwp/dcl.fct#5.sentence-3)
"After determining the type of each parameter, any parameter of type “array of
T”
or of function type T is adjusted to be “pointer to T”. After producing the list
of parameter types, any top-level cv-qualifiers modifying a parameter type are
deleted when forming the function type."
Please note the action of deleting top-level cv-qualifiers happens at last stage
after array type is converted to pointer type. More importantly, there are two
conditions:
a) Each type must be able to be determined.
b) The cv-qualifier must be top-level.
Let's analysis if these two conditions can be met one by one.
1) Keyword "typename" indicates inside template it involves dependent name
(https://timsong-cpp.github.io/cppwp/n4659/temp.res#2) for which the name
lookup
can be postponed until template instantiation. Clearly the type of dependent
name cannot be determined without name lookup. Then we can NOT proceed to next
step until concrete template argument type is determined during specialization.
2) After “array of T” is converted to “pointer to T”, the cv-qualifiers are no
longer top-level! Unfortunately in standard there is no definition
of "top-level". Mr. Dan Saks's articals (https://www.dansaks.com/articles.shtml)
are tremendous help! Especially this wonderful paper
(https://www.dansaks.com/articles/2000-02%20Top-Level%20cv-Qualifiers%20in%20Function%20Parameters.pdf)
discusses this topic in details. In one short sentence, the "const" before
array type is NOT top-level-cv-qualifier and should NOT be dropped.
So, understanding the root cause makes the fix very clear: Let's NOT drop
cv-qualifier for typename-type inside template. Leave this task for template
substitution later when template specialization locks template argument types.
Similarly inside template, "decltype" may also include dependent name and
the best strategy for parser is to preserve all original declaration and
postpone the task till template substitution.
Here is an interesting observation to share. Originally my fix is trying to
use function "resolve_typename_type" to see if the "typename-type" is indeed
an array type so as to decide whether the const should be dropped. It works
for cases of PR101402,PR102033(with a small fix of function), but cannot
succeed on cases of PR102034,PR102039. Especially PR102039 is impossible
because it depends on template argument. This helps me realize that parser
should not do any work if it cannot be 100% successful. All can wait.
At last I want to acknowledge other efforts to tackle this core 1001/1322 from
PR92010 which is an irreplaceable different approach from this fix by doing
rebuilding template function signature during template substitution stage.
After all, this fix can only deal with dependent type started with "typename"
or "decltype" which is not the case of pr92010.
Unfortunately, your patch breaks
template <class T>
struct A
{
void f(T);
};
template <class T>
void A<T>::f(const T)
{ }
which is certainly questionable code, but is currently also accepted by
clang and EDG compilers.
Why doesn't the PR92010 fix address these testcases as well?
