I was just playing around with the new std::function from C++11, and I wrote an example that compiles with clang++ 3.2 and the Intel C++ compiler 13.1 but not with g++ 4.8. Before I report this as a bug, I thought I'd check that I'm not doing something really stupid and that this should actually compile. So, is the following code valid c++11?
template <typename C>
void map(C& c, std::function<typename C::value_type(typename C::value_type)> f)
{
for(auto& x : c) {
x = f(x);
}
}
int main()
{
std::vector<int> v;
v.push_back(1);
v.push_back(2);
v.push_back(3);
map(v, [](int x) { return x+2; });
for(auto x : v) {
std::cout << x << std::endl;
}
}
I realise that this code isn't very useful but it struck me as odd that clang and Intel C++ compiled it and gcc didn't.
EDIT: gcc will also not compile the same code when passing map a functor or function pointer:
struct {
int operator() (int a) {
return a+2;
}
} add2s;
map(v, add2s);
int add2 (int a) {
return a+2;
}
map(v,add2);
clang and icpc also compile both of these.
This is a G++ bug, it can be reduced to the following example which doesn't use std::function
(or anything from the standard library):
template<typename T>
struct function
{
function(int)
{ }
};
struct V {
typedef int value_type;
};
template <typename C>
void map(C&, function<typename C::value_type>)
{
}
int main()
{
V v;
map(v, 1);
}
I've reported it to bugzilla as PR 56874. The problem is not related to lambdas, but to a type in a non-deduced context incorrectly causing argument deduction to fail.
