Bug ID: 81676
Summary: Wrong warning with unused-but-set-parameter within 'if
constexpr'
Product: gcc
Version: 7.1.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: benni.buch at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
template < typename T >
int f(T v){
if constexpr(sizeof(T) == sizeof(int)){
return v;
}else{
return 0;
}
}
int main(){
f(0);
f('a');
}
This is a valid program which should not produce a warning. (Normal 'if'
doesn't produce a warning either.)
