Bug 109325

Created attachment 187363 [details] Patch

Comment on attachment 187363 [details] Patch Why can't we always use std::isinf and std::isnan instead of doing this?

The quirk was introduced in bug #59249 to work around the collision between C99 and C++11 isnan and isinf methods. It's more of a standard library quirk than a compiler quirk, though.

That still doesn't answer my question. I'm guessing that there's an ambiguity error when calling isinf or isnan when the std namespace has been brought in using "using namespace std"?

I'm guessing that there's an ambiguity error when calling isinf or isnan when the std namespace has been brought in using "using namespace std"? Yes exactly, and previously the coding style required us to use 'using namespace std;'. This has changed now, but we might still have problems with some compilers not having the functions in the std namespace (seems the Intel compiler only fixed that recently).

This has changed now, but we might still have problems with some compilers not having the functions in the std namespace (seems the Intel compiler only fixed that recently). In that case, I'd rather see us move in that direction (adding explicit std:: qualifications for isinf and isnan). If some STL versions don't put isinf and isnan in the std namespace than we should add workarounds for that.

If some STL versions don't put isinf and isnan in the std namespace than we should add workarounds for that. I agree we should move to std:: prefixed methods everywhere, but I am not sure it should be done here and now. I have not seen or heard of any issues with this quirk except that it looks kind of ugly, but it is localised to a few lines of code in a single file, and as long as it doesn't cause any trouble, I personally think it would be a wrong to undo it, if doing so could potentially create new issues to an unknown set of other configurations. For this patch in particular, I would accept it as long as it only affects it own configuration of clang+glibcpp.

I'd be willing to write one myself. I can work on that as well, for starters modifying calls to isinf/isnan by prefixing them. I could then revisit the need for this specific compiler quirk both in general case of using gcc with libstdc++ and the case of using clang with libstdc++. If I'm understanding the stretch goals correctly here all the calls to other methods in the std namespace would then also move to using the std:: prefix, which I might fancy doing as well.

That sounds great! > I could then revisit the need for this specific compiler quirk both in general case of using gcc with libstdc++ and the case of using clang with libstdc++. Sounds good. > If I'm understanding the stretch goals correctly here all the calls to other methods in the std namespace would then also move to using the std:: prefix, which I might fancy doing as well. I think that's a separate patch though.
