Description stephen.morton 1999-06-28 07:48:55 UTC

The following code -

class class_x {
   int y;

   class_x (int y) : class_x::y (y) {};
};

-  gives an error "No type named y in class class_x".

assigned to pbrown. He might compute what that code wants to do.

Comment 2 Preston Brown 1999-07-06 14:42:59 UTC

I compute (however you should probably make the constructor public)
however fixing this bug is beyond the realm of my comprehension.  Work
arounds include of course changing the name of the parameter you pass
into the constructor, or the name of the member variable.  Hopefully
this will be fixed in a later release of the egcs compiler, but it is
rather messy.  Please also report this bug to the egcs team.
