I guess it would also be possible to reorder the declarations so as to
have a single #ifdef (well, two), but then the various overloads of
each function wouldn't be adjacent anymore.
Indeed. I would say let's not re-order for now, I'll have a further look
later on.
* include/tr1/cmath (float fabs(float), long double fabs(long
double)): Wrap in !__CORRECT_ISO_CPP_MATH_H_PROTO1.
There is a comment:
// Note: we deal with fabs in a special way, because an using std::fabs
// would bring in also the overloads for complex types, which in C++0x
// mode have a different return type.
and then it proceeds to using ::fabs and declare the float and long
double overloads. Now on solaris, using ::fabs is going to be
equivalent to using std::fabs. I don't know if that creates problems
for the complex types, and in that case what can be done about it
(declare fabs(double) instead of importing the global one?).
We have a testcase for that issue, see Rev 170083,
testsuite/tr1/headers/c++200x/complex.cc. I think defining fabs(double)
in namespace tr1 is not an option, because an actual definition vs an
using leads to errors when the user does an using std::tr1 in the global
namespace (a recurring issue, this one, we must be very careful). I
think for now we have to live with a possible regression of the above
testcase on Solaris, seems a relatively minor issue to me, nobody
noticed the problem for *years*.
