I have a crash with getline in the following code file. I built gcc7.2 because system updates are not available.
Minimal example :
#include <iostream>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
std::string line;
while (std::getline(std::cin, line))
{
}
return 0;
}
On the following lines, GCC_INSTALL_DIR represents the directory where my own gcc is installed Output :
./a.out
a

We have to use _GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0
because we interact with an old library.
Removing flto
, _GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0
or changing -std=c++17
for -std=c++14
resolves the crash.
Is it a bug with gcc-7.2 or did I miss something ? Should I file a bug-report to gcc ?
I would prefer to avoid the workaround of disabling flto
or c++17
Edit : bug present in gcc7.2 : https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82172
There is a bug on old version of binutils.
Building with binutils-2.28 resolved those problems.
