Placement new in gcc
- by Roman Prikhodchenko
I need to find a workaround for a bug with placement new in g++. I now it was fixed in gcc-4.3 but I have to support versions 4.2 and 4.1. For example, following code compiles with an error
"error: no matching function for call to 'operator new(long unsigned int, void*&)"
template<class T, template<typename> class Alloc>
inline void* type_ctor()
{
Alloc<T> a; void* p = a.allocate(1);
new(p) T;
return p;
}
.....
type_ctor<A, NewAllocator >();
