Issue ID: 14901
Summary: [reg 2.067/2.068] template static shared this() run
multiple times with separate compilation
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: x86
OS: Mac OS X
Status: NEW
Severity: regression
Priority: P1
Component: dmd
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Consider the following test case (zip attached for your convenience):
---
module a;
extern(C) int printf(const char*, ...);
int make(string s)() {
__gshared static int value;
struct WithCtor {
shared static this() {
printf("%s\n", s.ptr);
}
}
return value;
}
---
module b;
import a;
alias bar = make!"bar";
struct User(int id) {
int foo() {
return bar;
}
}
---
module c;
import b;
// This causes the id that is part of the generated name to be different.
shared static this() {}
void caller1() {
User!1 u;
}
---
module d;
import b;
void caller2() {
User!2 u;
}
---
module e;
import c;
import d;
void main() {
caller1();
caller2();
}
---
When compiled separately and with -unittest (e.g. using 'find *.d | xargs -n1
dmd -c -unittest' and then linking), it will print "bar" twice. This was likely
introduced in 2.067 (could not reproduce in 2.066), and still affects 2.068.
As far as the cause for this goes, for reasons I'm not entirely clear about a
unique identifier is used for function name of the static ctor (e.g.
_sharedStaticCtor55). For (amongst others) -unittest builds, the ctor function
is always emitted to fix issue 11239. Thus, different object files end up with
differently named copies of the same function, which consequently also gets run
multiple times.
Because the function name is also a part of the symbol name for the gate
boolean, the latter does not help with resolving this issue.
