Description Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-08-19 11:11:17 UTC
In file included from ../../gpu/ipc/common/mailbox_holder_struct_traits.h:10:0,
                 from gen/cc/ipc/texture_mailbox.mojom.cc:29:
../../gpu/ipc/common/mailbox_struct_traits.h: In static member function ‘static mojo::ConstCArray<signed char> mojo::StructTraits<gpu::mojom::MailboxDataView,
gpu::Mailbox>::name(const gpu::Mailbox&)’:
../../gpu/ipc/common/mailbox_struct_traits.h:17:20: error: could not convert ‘(const int8_t*)(& mailbox.gpu::Mailbox::name)’ from ‘const int8_t* {aka const sig
ned char*}’ to ‘mojo::ConstCArray<signed char> {aka base::Span<const signed char>}’
     return mailbox.name;
                    ^

This happens with gcc-5.4.0-r3 but not gcc-6.4.0.

Same problem here.
Comment 2 Norman Shulman 2017-09-20 18:12:20 UTC
Seems the chromium people like to use the second-most recent version of gcc. The need to build chromium is what pushed me to upgrade to gcc 5 before it was stable. Now I've upgraded to gcc 6.
