The following invalid code snippet causes an ICE on mainline: =============================== namespace N { struct A; }
template<int> struct N::A {}; =============================== bug.cc:6: error: 'template<int <anonymous> > struct N::A' redeclared as different kind of symbol bug.cc:3: error: previous declaration of 'struct N::A' bug.cc:6: internal compiler error: tree check: expected class 'type', have 'exceptional' (error_mark) in cp_parser_class_specifier, at cp/parser.c:12298 Please submit a full bug report, [etc.] The regression was introduced here: : Search converges between 2004-02-01-trunk (#445) and 2004-03-01-trunk (#446). Looks like we don't handle cp_parser_class_head returning error_mark_node in cp_parser_class_specifier. Should we always return NULL_TREE if cp_parser_class_head fails? Or should we check for error_mark_node in cp_parser_class_specifier as well? (Since both cases will probably handled in the same code path, the former makes more sense to me.) -- Summary: [4.0 regression] ICE redeclaring struct as template Product: gcc Version: 4.0.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: ice-on-invalid-code, error-recovery, monitored Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: reichelt at gcc dot gnu dot org CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18758
