--- Comment #4 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Jonathan Wakely <r...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:3eefb302d2bd8502cb3d8fe44e672b11092ccaf6 commit r11-2881-g3eefb302d2bd8502cb3d8fe44e672b11092ccaf6 Author: Jonathan Wakely <jwak...@redhat.com> Date: Wed Aug 26 14:47:51 2020 +0100 libstdc++: Enable assertions in constexpr string_view members [PR 71960] Since GCC 6.1 there is no reason we can't just use __glibcxx_assert in constexpr functions in string_view. As long as the condition is true, there will be no call to std::__replacement_assert that would make the function ineligible for constant evaluation. PR libstdc++/71960 * include/experimental/string_view (basic_string_view): Enable debug assertions. * include/std/string_view (basic_string_view): Likewise.
