Synopsis: gcc 3.2 problem with overloaded inherited operator
State-Changed-From-To: open->analyzed
State-Changed-By: bangerth
State-Changed-When: Tue Dec 10 14:28:05 2002
State-Changed-Why:
I can confirm that this problem exists. However, I am
not sure whether it is really a bug: the operator
you want to call is simply hidden by the operator
in the derived class. What I don't know is how lookup
of member operators happen -- if the same rule applies
as for virtual functions, then the operator in the base
class is rightfully hidden; if not, then this is a bug.
On the other hand, if virtual function semantics apply,
then a function similar to -Woverloaded-virtual should
exist.
