I have been confused by seeing the USES entries with things like c++11 then finding the port is building a program the original authors set/updated to c++14 through a cmake definition. I figure in that case that either it should be left out of the port's makefile as the cmake author is maintaining a correct definition or should be copied out to the port tree's makefile. Copying seems error prone and effort duplication if it wasn't needed to override the original and I didn't think this was intended as an override as much as to add it if missing. Should many of such entries be pruned back out of the ports tree? Is there any easy way to determine/warn port authors of redundancy if it is not desired? >> Mark Millard <marklmi@yahoo.com> escreveu (quinta, 8/02/2024 à(s) 05:52): >> The error on the FreeBSD build servers: >> >> QUOTE >> /wrkdirs/usr/ports/lang/gcc14-devel/work/gcc-14-20240114/gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64.cc:13095:50: error: constexpr variable 'tiles' must be initialized by a constant expression >> 13095 | static constexpr std::pair<unsigned int, char> tiles[] = { >> | ^ ~ >> 13096 | { 0xff, 'b' }, >> | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >> 13097 | { 0x55, 'h' }, >> | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >> 13098 | { 0x11, 's' }, >> | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >> 13099 | { 0x01, 'd' } >> | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >> 13100 | }; >> | ~ >> /wrkdirs/usr/ports/lang/gcc14-devel/work/gcc-14-20240114/gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64.cc:13096:5: note: non-constexpr constructor 'pair<int, char, nullptr>' cannot be used in a constant expression >> 13096 | { 0xff, 'b' }, >> | ^ >> /usr/include/c++/v1/__utility/pair.h:225:5: note: declared here >> 225 | pair(_U1&& __u1, _U2&& __u2) >> END QUOTE >> >> is because C++11 did not have pair constructors being constexpr. >> C++14 (and later) does.
