Re: [PATCH] Fix PR c++/70121 (premature folding of const var that was implicitly captured)


On 03/10/2016 05:58 PM, Patrick Palka wrote:
This patch reverses the behavior of process_outer_var_ref, so that we
always implicitly capture a const variable if it's capturable, instead
of always trying to first fold it to a constant.  This behavior however
is wrong too, and introduces a different but perhaps less important
regression: if we implicitly capture by value a const object that is not
actually odr-used within the body of the lambda, we may introduce a
redundant call to its copy/move constructor, see pr70121-2.C.

In general I'm disinclined to trade one bug for another, and I'm skeptical that the different regression is less important; I imagine that most uses of const variables will be for their constant value rather than their address.
