g++ gives an "internal compiler error: Segmentation fault"
message where it should give an error about illegal code. I've included
code to cause the problem. This code shows a mistake in the
initialization of a template member. The template was used incorrectly.
The simple problem code is:
/* The example code that causes the failure: */
template <int ndim_ = 0>
class bob {
const int ndim;
};
/* note that the mistake below causes the g++ crash:
* bob<ndim> below should be bob<ndim_>
*/
template <int ndim_>
const int bob<ndim>::ndim = ndim_;
int main() {
bob<> a;
return 0;
}
