Bug ID: 89642
Summary: gcc rejects valid implicit typename context in cast
Product: gcc
Version: 9.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: blitzrakete at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
template <typename T>
void f(T t) {
static_cast<int(T::type)>(t); // gcc rejects, but this is well-formed
}
gcc rejects the above with:
<source>: In function 'void f(T)':
<source>:3:18: error: expected '>' before '(' token
3 | static_cast<int(T::type)>(t);
| ^
But the code is well-formed, since the smallest enclosing type-id of
`int(T::type)` is the type-id of the static_cast, which is a valid type-id-only
context as per [temp.res]p5.
