Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: anders.granlund.0 at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- Consider the following c++ program: int main() { struct A { struct B *b; }; using U =3D B;=20=20=20 } Compile it with "-std=3Dc++20 -pedantic-errors". The gcc compiler accepts it. Clang however rejects it with the following error=20 message: "unknown type name 'B': using U =3D B;". The interesting thing is that if we replace struct S with struct S {} b= oth compilers agree on rejecting the program. I'm not sure if this is a bug in gcc or clang, but I think this is a gcc bu= g.=
