Bug ID: 69220
Summary: Internal error with array of negative size and
initializers for it
Product: gcc
Version: 5.3.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: j2108665 at trbvm dot com
Target Milestone: ---
GCC seems to loop infinitely when this code is given:
int main()
{
int* p = new int[-1]{1};
}
Limiting its CPU time produces an internal compiler error. Notice that with an
empty braced-init-list (so without the '1'), compilation succeeds.
Compiled with:
$ g++ -std=c++11 test.cpp
