[Bug c++/27483] New: Pointer to protected member

["wolfgang dot roehrl at gi-de dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Dear all,

I would like to post a bug report for the GNU C/C++ compiler 3.3-e500.

We use the compiler to generate code for a PowerPC processor.

Used invokation line for the GNU C++ compiler:

ccppc -c -x c++ -ansi -Wall -Werror -mcpu=8540 -fverbose-asm -mbig
      -fmerge-templates -mmultiple -mno-string -mstrict-align -O3
      -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti -fno-builtin-printf
      -I<some include paths>
      -D<some #define's>
      X.CPP -oX.O


// file X.CPP

struct B
{
protected:
    void f (int);
};

void g (void (B::*)(int));

struct D : B
{
    void h1 () const { g (&B::f); }    // <--- line 11 (illegal)
    void h2 () const { g (&D::f); }    // <--- line 12 (legal)
};


The compiler ignores that line 11 is illegal with respect to 11.5/1: "If the
access is to form a pointer to member, the nested-name-specifier shall name
the derived class (or any class derived from that class)."

Kind regards
W. Roehrl
