Error description

  • The compiler generates an incorrect template message for the
    following test case:
    
    =====Compile Command:
    xlC -c b.cc
    
    =====Testcase:
    $cat b.cc
    template <int, int> struct Tensor {};
    template <int dim> class Tensor<0,dim> {};
    
    template <int dim> struct X {
         template <int spacedim>
         void foo (Tensor<spacedim-dim,spacedim>)
       {}
    };
    
    template void X<1>::foo  (Tensor<1-1,1>);
    $
    
    
    =====Action Output:
    $xlC -c b.cc
    "b.cc", line 10.21: 1540-0288 (S) The function template
    parameter of type "Tensor<spacedim-(int) (1),spacedim>" cannot
    be initialized with an argument of type "Tensor<0,1>".
    $
    
    
    =====Expected Output:
    Should compile without any errors.

Problem summary

  • USERS AFFECTED:
    The problem may be seen where a non-type template argument is
    used in a non-deduced context before arguments using it in a
    deducable context.
    
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    The use of a non-type template argument in a non-deduced
    context was stopping argument deduction in later arguments.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The above compiler problem has been resolved.
