The line number mentioned in the "extra qualification" error is not
ideal. Instead of showing the line number on which the extra
qualification actually occurs it shows the last line of the
declaration.
(sid)6102:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~] cat > test.cpp
class foo {
foo::foo(int a,
int b,
int c);
};
int main() {
}
(sid)6103:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~] g++ test.cpp
test.cpp:4: error: extra qualification `foo::' on member `foo'
I'd like to see "test.cpp:2: ..." here.
Presumably it checks things like that after reading a complete
declaration. I would have thought it could track what the first line
of the declaration was though.
