Bug ID: 90670 Summary: const& template parameter in a header trips -Wsubobject-linkage Product: gcc Version: 8.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: adam1.byrd at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- Placing the following code in a header and including it will spuriously cause the -Wsubobject-linkage warning. No special flags need to be set to trigger this. I've tested with 7.4 and 8.0. template <const int&> class seChildScheduleAccess {}; constexpr int DummyId = 0; struct seGccBugJob { seChildScheduleAccess<DummyId> m_test; }; In file included from gcc_bug_job.cpp:1:0: gcc_bug_job.h:6:8: warning: ‘seGccBugJob’ has a field ‘seGccBugJob::m_test’ whose type uses the anonymous namespace [-Wsubobject-linkage] struct seGccBugJob Using built-in specs.
