Package: gcc-snapshot Version: 20180107-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I should have reported this upstream, but creating an account on GCC Bugzilla takes a day. In the meantime... This sample C++ program $ cat broken.cc struct Rect { int width; }; void f() { const Rect rect = {11}; // This should be constexpr char str[1][rect.width+1] = { {"12345678901"}, }; } fails compilation with this error: $ /usr/lib/gcc-snapshot/bin/g++ -std=c++17 -c broken.cc broken.cc: In function 'void f()': broken.cc:9:3: internal compiler error: in process_init_constructor_array, at cp/typeck2.c:1318 }; ^ Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate. See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-snapshot/README.Bugs> for instructions. If I've understood the standard correctly, the expression used as the size of the array should be a constexpr, and the compiler should complain about it. Asking the user to file a bug report instead of fixing their code is the wrong response. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.14.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_IE:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages gcc-snapshot depends on: ii binutils 2.29.1-12 ii lib32z1 1:1.2.8.dfsg-5 ii libc6 2.25-5 ii libc6-dev 2.25-5 ii libc6-dev-i386 2.25-5 ii libc6-dev-x32 2.25-5 ii libc6-i386 2.25-5 ii libc6-x32 2.25-5 ii libgc1c2 1:7.4.2-8 ii libgmp10 2:6.1.2+dfsg-1.1 ii libisl15 0.18-1 ii libmpc3 1.0.3-2 ii libmpfr4 3.1.6-1 ii python 2.7.14-4 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-5 gcc-snapshot recommends no packages.
