Bug ID: 68307
Summary: [mingw32] Missing enum values in std::errc
Product: gcc
Version: 4.8.2
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: libstdc++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: beck.ct at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
I originally encountered this problem when trying to cross-compile a C++
program using websocketpp to communicate using websockets, using the mingw-w64
toolchain.
The problem is that the libstdc++ header file
`libstdc++-v3/config/os/mingw32-w64/error_constants.h` comments out a large
number of enum values for the enum `std::errc` which are not optional and are
required by the C++11 standard to exist. In particular, I get this error
related to `std::errc::operation_canceled`:
```
In file included from
websocketpp-0.6.0/include/websocketpp/config/asio_no_tls_client.hpp:32:0,
from main.cpp:31:
websocketpp-0.6.0/include/websocketpp/transport/asio/endpoint.hpp: In member
function âvoid
websocketpp::transport::asio::endpoint<config>::handle_accept(websocketpp::transport::accept_handler,
const error_code&)â:
websocketpp-0.6.0/include/websocketpp/transport/asio/endpoint.hpp:764:28:
error: âoperation_canceledâ is not a member of âstd::errcâ
if (asio_ec == lib::asio::errc::operation_canceled) {
^
```
It compiles fine when using g++.
For simplicity, here is a trivial program which I believe conforms to the
standard but is prevented from compiling on mingw because of this problem:
```
#include <system_error>
int main() {
std::errc temp;
if (temp == std::errc::operation_canceled) {
return 1;
}
return 0;
}
```
In the C++11 standard section 19.5.2, the symbol
`std::errc::operation_canceled` is provided in the `<system_error>` synopsis,
and its existence is not listed as optional.
Further, 19.5.3 states that "The value of each enum errc constant shall be the
same as the value of the <cerrno> macro shown in
the above synopsis."
It was suggested to me on irc that this is a libstdc++ bug and not a mingw-w64
bug.
