Bug ID: 59682
Summary: Invalid syntax accepted: new-placement without
expression-list
Product: gcc
Version: 4.8.2
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: frankhb1989 at gmail dot com
Minimal case:
int main()
{
int* p = new() int;
}
This should be invalid because as per the standard(ISO C++98/03/11) or the
current working draft of the standard(WG21/N3797), a new-placement should not
be '()':
[expr.new]/1
...
new-placement:
( expression-list )
...
There is no "opt" like "postfix-expression ( expression-list opt)", etc. And
the expression-list itself should be also a non-empty sequence of tokens.
G++ silently accepts the invalid code with or without
-pedantic-errors/-std=c++98/-std=c++03/-std=++11/-std=c++1y.
However, Clang++(trunk) rejects it correctly:
a.cc:4:14: error: expected expression
int* p = new() int;
