list<T>::insert(pos, start, finish) doesn't provide the strong guarantee as required by 23.2.3.3 list modifiers See http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.c++.moderated/browse_frm/thread/b215edcb44b19bb9/c875353acb4da29e It's almost a sure bet that libstdc++ contains other exception-safety bugs. I suggest you adapt and adopt the test mentioned here: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.c++.moderated/tree/browse_frm/thread/1ff1165766b913f5/92dcc2c639b9ce39 and here: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.c++.moderated/browse_frm/thread/5272e2a3501ad534/3c80688532fcf240
Ok, thanks, but this bug is already fixed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 25288 ***
I won't push the subject any further, but again, if you don't adopt the tests mentioned in the threads cited above, you will almost certainly have further exception safety bugs lurking. Howard Hinnant can verify that this test works as he used it to validate the MSL.
This specific bug is already fixed and must be marked as duplicate. Then we have 21772, more general. We know what we are doing, thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 25288 ***
Dave, just to clarify, this is bug 21772. We're working on it. ;) -benjamin
