Hello,
I tried to use a boost::container::vector with a Texas Instruments compiler, and I got an error pointing to line 88 of <boost/intrusive/detail/has_member_function_callable_with.hpp> "Invalid base class", with Type=const std::allocator<something>"
Here's the context:
template <typename Type> class BOOST_PP_CAT(has_member_function_named_, BOOST_INTRUSIVE_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION_CALLABLE_WITH_FUNCNAME) { struct BaseMixin { void BOOST_INTRUSIVE_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION_CALLABLE_WITH_FUNCNAME(); };
struct Base : public Type, public BaseMixin { Base(); }; // <-- line 88
The problem seems to be the constness of Type. Here's a simplified example:
struct X {};
template < class T > struct Y : T { Y() {} };
int main() { Y<const X> y; }
The above example compiles fine with Linux gcc version 4.5.4, and MinGW 4.5.0, but fails with my TI compiler.
My question is: is this a bug of the TI compiler, or is that compiler actually right about this, and should we fix this in Boost? For now, my workaround is:
struct Base : public ::boost::remove_cv<Type>::type, public BaseMixin { Base(); }; // <-- line 88
Regards, Kris
Hi, Since there is no response, and this is used by Boost.Container, I added the [container] tag to the subject. Any opinions about which compiler is right about this: is GCC too permissive, or is TI buggy in this respect? Regards, Kris
