[Bug c++/46839] New: Parser confuses derived member with std::forward


http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46839

           Summary: Parser confuses derived member with std::forward
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.4.3
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: foehst@informatik.uni-kl.de

01: #include <iostream>
02: #include <utility>
03: using namespace std;
04:
05: template <typename T> struct A
06: {
07:   T forward;
08:   A() : forward(0) {}
09: };
10:
11: template <typename T> struct B : public A<T>
12: {
13:   void Function()
14:   {
15:     cout << (this->forward > 1) << endl;
16:     cout << (this->forward < 1) << endl;
17:   }
18: };
19:
20: int main(int argc, char **argv)
21: {
22:   return 0;
23: }

g++ -Wall -std=gnu++0x

: In member function âvoid B<T>::Function()â:
:16: error: parse error in template argument list

Used compiler version: gcc version 4.4.3 (Gentoo 4.4.3-r2 p1.2)
4.3 and 4.5 versions show the same behavior.

It seems, that in line 16 "forward <" is parsed as the beginning of a template
instantiation. To get this effect, the inclusion of <utility>, using namespace
std and using derived members in a template class is necessary. Maybe, using
namespace typically appears after template definition in other h-files, but a
scenario like this might occur. Apart from that: Would
"this->std::forward<...>" be valid C++ code?

Therefore, I think that is a bug in the parsers which neglects the occurrence
of this and starts to interpret forward as the std::forward template.
