Bug ID: 104221 Summary: member functions defined in separate files of classes declared in module partitions won't compile Product: gcc Version: 12.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: f.b.brokken at rug dot nl Target Milestone: --- The following source file (full.cc) compiles OK: ----------------------------- export module mod:partition; export class Data { int d_value = 10; public: int value() const; }; int Data::value() const { return d_value; } void fun(); ----------------------------- The function fun() can be implemented in a separate file, and also compiles OK (fun.cc): ------------------------- module; #include <iostream> module mod:partition; using namespace std; void fun() { cout << "hi\n"; } ------------------------- When implementing int Data::value() const in a separate file a compilation error results. Here's the modified module interface file (partition.cc): ----------------------------- export module mod:partition; export class Data { int d_value = 10; public: int value() const; }; void fun(); ----------------------------- and the source defining int Data::value() (value.cc): ------------------------ module mod:partition; int Data::value() const { return d_value; } ------------------------ The function void fun() compiles OK. When compiling g++ --std=c++20 -Wall -Wextra -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -c -fmodules-ts \ partition.cc fun.cc value.cc using g++-12 on an updated Debian linux system (g++ (Debian 12-20211217-1) 12.0.0 20211217 (experimental) [master r12-6027-g774269aa4b9] the compiler reports: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- value.cc:3:5: error: ‘Data’ has not been declared 3 | int Data::value() const | ^~~~ value.cc:3:19: error: non-member function ‘int value()’ cannot have cv-qualifier 3 | int Data::value() const | ^~~~~ value.cc: In function ‘int value()’: value.cc:5:12: error: ‘d_value’ was not declared in this scope; did you mean ‘value’? 5 | return d_value; | ^~~~~~~ | value value.cc: At global scope: value.cc:1:1: warning: not writing module ‘mod:partition’ due to errors 1 | module mod:partition; | ^~~~~~ -------------------------------------------------------------------------- If any additional information is required, please let me know.
