High Description
Hello,
rootcling writes into the generated dictionary
namespace std {} using namespace std;
|
before adding the headers the classes depend on. Adding the std namespace to the global scope lookup leads to compilation errors below (full err.log.gz attached) in case the class header for which the dictionary is generated includes boost 1.72.0 headers (using forward declarations is not always possible):
g++ -fPIC -std=gnu++1z -g -ggdb -O2 -I/home/shahoian/alice/sw/ubuntu1804_x86-64/ROOT/c5fc2a6169-1/include -I./ -I/home/shahoian/alice/sw/ubuntu1804_x86-64/boost/v1.72.0-alice1-1/include -c demoSTDDict.cxx -o demoSTDDict.o

Attached demoSTD.tar.gz reproduces the problem (since I am using the boos from Alice O2 bundle, I have its include path explicitly in the Makefile, should be adjusted depending on your test system): running `make` produces the errors I mentioned.
The problem is trivially fixed by moving the
namespace std {} using namespace std;

addition after the includes.
Here is the patch for the root fork used by Alice:
for root master
for root v6-18-04
With this patch both Makefile compilation and macro JIT compilation (root -b -q run_demoSTD.C+ after building the library using the Makefile) proceed w/o errors.
Best regards,
Ruben
