[Bug c++/15339] New: function call error

[MichaelLi8195 at hotmail dot com]

//*******mytest.hpp******* 
#ifndef MYTEST_H 
#define MYTEST_H 
#include <iostream> 
#include <string> 
template<typename T>    //declaration 
void fun(T val, const std::string seperator); //error, change to 
                                         //seperator = " " , then it works well

template<typename T>    //definition 
void fun(T val, const std::string seperator = " ") 
{ 
    std::cout<<val<<seperator<<std::endl; 
} 
#endif 

//***********test.cpp********* 
#include "mytest.hpp" 
int main() 
{ 
   fun(10); 
}

g++ test.cpp -o test
and reads "test.cpp:4:error: no matching function for call to `fun(int)'".
I think the function should be resolved from its definition not its 
declaration the first one it encountered. It means that although no default 
argument is provided in function declaration, as long as it has one default in 
the definition, it should also work well.

------- Additional Comments From bangerth at dealii dot org  2004-05-07 15:30 -------
Confirmed, here is a smaller testcase: 
----------- 
template<typename> void fun(int); 
template<typename> void fun(int = 0) {}  
 
int main()  
{ fun(); } 
----------- 
 
g/x> /home/bangerth/bin/gcc-3.4-pre/bin/c++ -c x.cc 
x.cc: In function `int main()': 
x.cc:10: error: no matching function for call to `fun()' 
 
However, we get this from icc: 
g/x> icc -Xc -ansi x.cc 
x.cc(2): warning #845: specifying a default argument when redeclaring an 
unreferenced function template is nonstandard 
  template<typename> void fun(int = 0) {}  
                          ^ 
 
x.cc(5): error: no instance of function template "fun" matches the argument 
list 
  { fun(); } 
    ^ 
 
compilation aborted for x.cc (code 2) 
 
 
So it seems that this is wrong code. Someone will have to look up the exact 
text in the standard though. I find it odd that this only applies to  
templates, not to non-template functions.

Actually, that was easy. 8.3.6/4 specificly says 
  For non-template functions, default arguments can be added in later 
  declarations. 
 
So the code is invalid.

Yes, you're right.  But we should be diagnosing the declaration
in the first place -- which we fail.  So there is an issue here, but
not that one the submitter thought about.

It's in 8.3.6/4 . But see issue 226:
http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/cwg_defects.html#226

Basicly, it's a leftover from when there was no way to explicitly
    specifiy template arguments for function templates.

I fail to see the relevance of the DR to the present case. It doesn't 
say anything about default arguments for repeated declarations, does 
it?

[Bug c++/15339] [DR217] Adding default arguments to function templates in redeclartions should be forbidden

[giovannibajo at libero dot it]

------- Additional Comments From giovannibajo at libero dot it  2004-05-08 16:32 -------
This should be diagnosed:

------------------------------------
template<typename> void fun(int); 
template<typename> void fun(int = 0) {}  
------------------------------------

but it's not. I don't think it's a regression, but can anybody check?

Also, DR217 (TC1 status) says that this is also for regular member function of 
class templates. In other words, the following is invalid as well:

------------------------------------
    template <class T>
    struct S
    {
	void foo (int);
    };

    template <class T>
    void S<T>::foo (int = 0) { }
------------------------------------
(note that this testcase is already in our testsuite: g++.dg/tc1/dr217.C)

I could not find "g++.dg/tc1/dr217.C" in the testsuite of the recently 
released package gcc-3.4.0.tar.bz2. Where could I get it? Thanks.

No, it's not a regression -- we never detected this at least back to 
2.95. 
 
With respect to the testcase: they only seem to be in the CVS archive 
since after the 3.4 branch was created. Giovanni added these files on 
2004/02/17. They are not present on the 3.4 branch.
