Compile the following program with -std=c++0x. In my understanding, the two printed addresses should be the same. They are when I invoke foo() with a class type, but not with built-in types like char.
This is with the latest g++ built from SVN. #include <cstdio> #include <utility> template<typename T> void bar(T &&t) { std::printf("%p\n", &t); } template<typename T> void foo(T &&t) { std::printf("%p\n", &t); bar(std::forward<T>(t)); } struct S {}; int main() { foo('a'); // WRONG, prints 2 different addresses foo(S()); // OK, prints the same address twice } -- Summary: Rvalue references and std::forward() broken with built- in types Product: gcc Version: 4.3.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: eric dot niebler at gmail dot com http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34022
