#include <vector>
struct A : public std::vector<double>
{ using std::vector<double>::vector; };

compiles fine with g++ and clang, but the Intel compiler [icpc (ICC) 17.0.0 20160720] gives me (with flag -std=c++11)

error: function template "A::A(_ForwardIterator, _ForwardIterator, const std::__1::allocator &)" already inherited from "std::__1::vector>"

at the using directive. Any ideas why this is happening and/or how to solve it?
Should I just start suspecting an icpc bug or just blame my poor coding skills?
I'd appreciate any help, thanks!

Hi Simone,

They're called "inherited" not "imported" constructors.

I can't reproduce the error you are seeing. Can you do the following:

(1) uname -a

(2) gcc -v

(3) icc -v

and cut and paste the results here?

This is what I see - it's possible that there was a bug that has been fixed.

Could you upload try.cpp file?

It is possible that a version of Intel C++ compiler for OS X has some issue and it needs to be verified.

Simone_L_ · ‎02-13-2017

Dear Sergey,

I literally copy-pasted the three lines of code above, and that's it.
[I had actually deleted the old minimal working example =)]

If you still insist, I can upload it.

By the way, I also have access to a cluster running Linux (CentOS) with different icc versions:
icc -std=c++11 -c try.cpp
*compiles* with icc 15.0.3 and 16.0.1
while with 14.0.1 or 14.0.5 I get:
try.cpp(3): error #1140: a using-declaration may not name a constructor or destructor

Best,
S.

SergeyKostrov · ‎02-13-2017

>>...I literally copy-pasted the three lines of code above, and that's it. I simply wanted to verify that nothing else is in the try.cpp file. Thanks.

Judith_W_Intel · ‎02-15-2017

I was able to reproduce the problem on MacOS (their version of the <vector> class is needed to see the error).

Below is a reduced example. The problem seems to be that the compiler doesn't recognize that these two overloads are distinct because they only differ in the value of the default argument (which is used for SFINAE). Clang and Windows accept the code below, but both GNU and Interl give a spurious error. I have entered this defect in our bug tracking database as DPD200417938. Thanks for reporting it.

Thanks for your insight Judy.
I appreciate your help.
Can the bug database be seen by users to check progress status?

Judith_W_Intel · ‎02-15-2017

No sorry this is an internal bugs database. If you would like to enter a ticket via Intel Premier support and tell them about the number then you could monitor the status that way.

Spacetracker · ‎02-03-2022

It is 2022 and I am getting this error still:

MacOS 11.6.3 Big Sur

$ icpc --version

icpc (ICC) 2021.5.0 20211109

error: function template "vtkFoamPtrList<T>::vtkFoamPtrList(_ForwardIterator, _ForwardIterator, const std::__1::allocator<vtkFoamEntryValue *> &) [with T=vtkFoamEntryValue]" already inherited from "std::__1::vector<vtkFoamEntryValue *, std::__1::allocator<vtkFoamEntryValue *>>"

using std::vector<T*>::vector;

^

As this is the most recent compiler, what is the fix or code change to get past this error? This code builds with the default Clang compiler.

Thanks
