I think this change means some testcases will never test std::string with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG defined, because if that is defined they test __gnu_debug::string instead. That means assertions in std::basic_string like this one will not get tested: template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits, typename _Alloc> _GLIBCXX_STRING_CONSTEXPR typename basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>:: find(const _CharT* __s, size_type __pos, size_type __n) const _GLIBCXX_NOEXCEPT { __glibcxx_requires_string_len(__s, __n); Are we OK with never testing those assertions? Currently they don't get tested by default because of the extern template declarations for std::string, so they would only be tested with -std=c++20 -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG_PEDANTIC, which I don't test routinely. So I suppose this change doesn't make things any worse in practice. > I also noticed some problems with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG_PEDANTIC. > > libstdc++: Complete __gnu_debug::string Standard conformity > > Add testsuite/testsuite_string.h header to help testing > __gnu_debug::basic_string like > std::basic_string depending on _GLIBCXX_DEBUG. > > Add using of base type methods in __gnu_debug::basic_string to make > use of the method > overloads when there is no debug version. > > Fix _GLIBCXX_DEBUG_PEDANTIC assertions in <debug/string>.
