[Bug c++/31407] New: [4.3 Regression] undefined reference to `vtable for x'

["tbm at cyrius dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

I'm not quite sure what's going on here.  *Maybe* this is invalid code, but
I belive it's a compiler bug because the error goes away when I remove
completely
unrelated lines in the program.  Anyway, I get the following with 4.3 (it
compiles with 4.1):

(sid)6870:tbm@em64t: ~] g++ -c -g -O -o test.o test.cc
(sid)6871:tbm@em64t: ~] g++ -o x test.o
test.o: In function `Timer':

test.cc:


#include "timer.h"
#include <getopt.h>
#include <string>

enum {O_ROW_PLOT, O_VERSION};

static struct option my_options[] =
{
  {"row-plot", 1, 0, O_ROW_PLOT},
  {"version", 0, 0, O_VERSION},
  {0, 0, 0, 0}
};

void test(double d) {
}

int main (int argc, char *const argv[])
{
  std::string strOutFile;
  Timer timerProgram;

  while (1) {
    char* endptr;
    int c = getopt_long (argc, argv, "", my_options, NULL);

    if (c == -1)
      break;

    switch (c) {
    case O_ROW_PLOT:
      strtol(optarg, &endptr, 10);
      break;
    case O_VERSION:
      return (0);

    }
  }

  test(timerProgram.timerEnd());

  return (0);
}


timer.h:


#ifndef _TIMER_H
#define _TIMER_H

#pragma interface "timer.h"

#include <cstdlib>
#include <sys/time.h>

class Timer
{
 public:
    Timer (void)
        {}

    ~Timer (void)
        {}

    virtual double timerEnd (void)
      {
        return ttime();
      }

 protected:
    double ttime(void) const
        {
            struct timeval now;
            gettimeofday (&now, NULL);
            return 0;
        }
};

#endif  // _TIMER_H
