Description Faisal Vali 2010-04-17 23:44:31 UTC 
gcc 4.5 in c++0x mode rejects the following valid code:

std::vector<int> vec;

decltype(vec)::value_type v = vec.first();

Per the DR above, decltype can be used with the :: operator.

This is similar to a bug report that someone posted for version 3.1, but my experience is with 4.5.

Yes your experience is with 4.5.0 but there is no reason to file a new bug about a known issue.  I don't know if the C++ defect report 743 have been voted on yet or not (if not then PR 6709 is suspended because we don't know the final decision of the standards committee).
