Summary: constexpr member function cannot use the class type it
belongs as parameter type or return type
Product: gcc
Version: 4.7.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: boostcpp@gmail.com
constexpr member function cannot use the class type it belongs as parameter
type or return type.
gcc issues errors for the following code.
struct X
{
constexpr X() { }
// error : invalid parameter type and return type.
// same for static and non-static member function
constexpr X f( X x ) { return x ; }
} ;
I think this is a well-formed code.
Base class name can be used.
Also gcc issues errors for the following code which I think it's caused by the
same problem.
struct X
{
constexpr X() { }
// declaration
constexpr X f( X x ) ;
} ;
// definition
// error : redeclaration differs
constexpr X X::f( X x ) { return x ; }
There is no difference in the redeclaration.
So this error is wrong.
