Bug 78579 – GCC internal compiler error: in finish_class_member_access_expr, at cp/typeck.c:2159

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jonathan Huot 2005-01-18 14:00:26 UTC]

When I try to compile, I get this error:

"g++ -Wall    -c -o bug.o bug.cpp
In file included from bug.cpp:1:
bug.h: In member function `void c_usebug::submitbug()':
bug.h:28: internal compiler error: in finish_class_member_access_expr, at 
   cp/typeck.c:2159
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <URL:http://bugs.gentoo.org/> for instructions.
Preprocessed source stored into /tmp/ccwRNw0y.out file, please attach this to your bugreport.
make: *** [bug.o] Error 1"

bug.cpp is as fellow:

"class		c_bug
{
 public:
  enum		e_dir
    {
      SE
    };
};

class		c_usebug
{
 private:
  c_bug		*_bug;

 public:
  void	submitbug() { _bug->e_dir::SE; };
};"

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get attachment tarball
2. Untar file
3. Type "make"

OR
1. Get description of file in "Details" of bug.
2. Put this one in a "file.cpp"
3. Execute: "g++ file.cpp"

Actual Results:  
g++ got an internal error.

Expected Results:  
A pretty message like: "syntax is incorrect", and not exit promptly.

Some pieces of code for BUG

Untar, go in new directory, and exec "make".

Debug developer should need this one for debugging gcc.

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16904

Looks like it could be it.  I'll see about backporting the patch if we want to
fix this issue in 3.3.6.

[Comment 4 Mark Loeser (RETIRED) 2005-12-09 19:12:07 UTC]

Upgrade to gcc-3.4.
