gcc version 4.0.0
template functions appear to erase the effect of the __extension__ keyword inside their definitions,
causing "-ansi -pedantic" to produce an error instead of a warning.
Compiling the following code with "-ansi -pedantic" produces an error for the line in the template
function, but not the ordinary function.
% g++ -c -ansi -pedantic foo.cpp
foo.cpp: In function âint template_function(int) [with T = void]â:
foo.cpp:15: instantiated from here
foo.cpp:11: error: ISO C++ forbids variable-size array
------------------------------------------------------
int ordinary_function(int dimension)
{
__extension__ int data[dimension];
return 0;
}
template<typename T>
int template_function(int dimension)
{
__extension__ int data[dimension];
return 0;
}
template int template_function<void>(int);
