Greetings.
I observe that templated inline functions are unaffected by
-fvisibility-inlines-hidden (`nm -D` still lists symbols like "0123 W
_ZNK3bar8fortytwoIiEEKiT_"), and this seems even expected to some
degree, quoting gcc.1:
Explicitly instantiated inline methods are unaffected by this
option as their linkage might otherwise cross a shared
library boundary.
However, if I am not mistaken, the following snippet relies on
implicit instantiation. Am I observing a gcc bug here?
(Also, the manpage paragraph, if unrolled, would read "if inline
methods were affected by -fvi.., then their linkage would cross a
boundary". But since they would be hidden, how could they cross a
boundary?)
struct __attribute__((visibility("default"))) bar {
constexpr inline const int fortyone(void) { return 41; }
template<typename T> constexpr inline const int
fortytwo(T x) const { return 42; }
};
void f(void) {
bar b;
b.fortyone();
b.fortytwo(0);
}
Using built-in specs.
