            Bug ID: 21080
           Summary: Misleading error message: error: implicit
                    instantiation of undefined template
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: Macintosh
                OS: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: C++
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

    Classification: Unclassified

Trying to compile a reduced version of the program at
https://github.com/nasailja/gensimcell/blob/a342ba0347de2f0d333641a39477de7c2abbe3cb/tests/parallel/one_variable.cpp
produces a very misleading message considering that the correct fix is to just
add #include "array" to the file:

../../source/gensimcell_impl.hpp:626:31: error: implicit instantiation of
undefined template 'std::__1::array<double, 3>'
        typename Variable::data_type data;
                                     ^

                                                                ^
1 error generated.


A correct looking array (std::...::array) is even mentioned in the error
message. It probably wouldn't be too difficult to give a hint to the user that
array is being used without including the required header...
