Dear RootTalk,
First, forgive this multiple posting, but I sent this last Friday and
have not yet seen it posted to
the list so I am sending this again.
We in MINOS have come across a CINT parsing problem that can be demonstrated with the following lines:-
#include "TImage.h"
"foo" + TString("bar")
which fails:-
Error: can not call private or protected function (tmpfile):1:
/data/minos/minos/software/OO/minos_packs_sl4/root_svn_1/root/lib/libGra
f.so -1 TImage TImage::TImage(const char*);
Calling : TImage::TImage(char*);
Match rank: file line signature
ffffffff
/data/minos/minos/software/OO/minos_packs_sl4/root_svn_1/root/lib/libGra
f.so -1 TImage TImage::TImage(UInt_t,UInt_t);
ffffffff
/data/minos/minos/software/OO/minos_packs_sl4/root_svn_1/root/lib/libGra
f.so -1 TImage TImage::TImage(const TImage&);
ffffffff
/data/minos/minos/software/OO/minos_packs_sl4/root_svn_1/root/lib/libGra
f.so -1 TImage TImage::TImage();
This is with the current ROOT head, gcc version 3.4.6 Scientific Linux SL release 4.8.
As recently as July 28 the code correctly produced:-
(class TString)"foobar"
and I think the problem commit must have occurred within a day as my build on the 29th failed, but for a variety of reasons I did not follow it up until the last few days.
Cheers,
