When trying to answer to a question and create a constexpr std::array
, I wrote
// Own implementation as std::array::operator[] is not constexpr :/
template <typename T, std::size_t N>
struct array
{
constexpr T& operator[] (std::size_t index) { return data[index];}
constexpr const T& operator[] (std::size_t index) const { return data[index];}
constexpr std::size_t size() const { return N; }
T data[N];
};
constexpr array<std::size_t, 1001u> make_bottle_count()
{
array<std::size_t, 1001u> a = {{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1}};
for (int i = 11; i != a.size(); ++i) {
a[i] = 1 + std::min({a[i - 1], a[i - 5], a[i - 7], a[i - 10]});
}
return a;
}
int main() {
// Change constexpr to const make gcc returns expected result
constexpr auto bottle_count = make_bottle_count();
std::cout << bottle_count[17] << std::endl; // expect 2
std::cout << bottle_count[65] << std::endl; // expect 7
std::cout << bottle_count[1000] << std::endl; // expect 100
}
but gcc gives unexpected results (2
2
2
) whereas clang gives expected result.
Live demo
Removing constexpr
(or replacing by const
) for bottle_count
gives expected results for both.
Do I invoke UB, or it is a compiler(gcc) bug ?
It is a gcc bug, see: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=67104
I will add your testcase to the bug.
