Bug ID: 98864
Summary: Warning for unnecessary final keyword
Product: gcc
Version: 11.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: drepper.fsp+rhbz at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
Compile the following code:
struct foo {
virtual void f();
};
struct bar final : foo {
void f() final override;
};
It is correct and should compile but the function bar::f is annotated with
'final' even though the entire class is also annotated with 'final'. This adds
nothing and might be an indication of misunderstanding or leftovers from
previous versions of the code.
Perhaps a warning can be added to point out the issue.
