The following invalid code snippet causes an ICE since GCC 4.0.0: ======================================== struct A { ~A(); };
struct B : A { template<int> friend A::~A(); }; ======================================== bug.cc:5: error: prototype for 'A::~A()' does not match any in class 'A' bug.cc:1: error: candidate is: A::~A() bug.cc:4: internal compiler error: tree check: expected tree that contains 'decl common' structure, have 'overload' in add_implicitly_declared_members, at cp/class.c:2525 Please submit a full bug report, [etc.] In addition, the error message before the ICE could be better: 1) A destructor can never be a template. This is not mentioned here. 2) We only print 'A::~A()' as the prototype. We should probably print that we have a template here. Otherwise there's no difference to the rejected candidate. -- Summary: [4.0/4.1/4.2 regression] ICE on templated destructor as friend Product: gcc Version: 4.2.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: ice-on-invalid-code, error-recovery, diagnostic, monitored Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: reichelt at gcc dot gnu dot org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25638
