Public bug reported:
Please have a look at this test program:
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#if __has_include(<filesystem>)
#include <filesystem>
namespace fs = std::filesystem;
#elif __has_include(<experimental/filesystem>)
#include <experimental/filesystem>
namespace fs = std::experimental::filesystem;
#endif
int main()
{
std::string s{'t', 'e', 0, 's', 't'};
fs::path p(s);
fs::create_directory(p);
std::ofstream(p / "foo");
fs::remove_all(p);
}
You can compile it with the following command:
g++-8 -std=c++17 -o test test.cc -lstdc++fs
When you run it (without any arguments), it will try to create a
directory "te", create a file "foo" in it and then try to remove said
directory and all files in it.
When I run it on my local machine it crashes with the following error
message:
# ./test
terminate called after throwing an instance of
'std::experimental::filesystem::v1::__cxx11::filesystem_error'
what(): filesystem error: cannot remove all: Directory not empty [te
[1] 8180 abort ./test
Through strace (log attached) I can tell that the crash is probably
triggered by running out file descriptors.
This bug also happens when compiling with gcc-7 or clang so I guess it's
really a bug in the std::filesystem library, not gcc itself.
