Conflicts with std <any> compiling with GCC 10

[afowles]

What is the issue you have?

Attempting to upgrade code from fedora 30 to fedora 32. With GCC 10 on f32 programs fail to compile that include <any> before <nlohmann/json.hpp>. With GCC 9.3.1 on f30 (and an older version 3.7.0) the provided example compiles.

[~]$ g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 10.0.1 20200328 (Red Hat 10.0.1-0.11)
[~]$ sudo dnf list --installed | grep json-devel
json-devel.x86_64                               3.7.3-2.fc32

Please describe the steps to reproduce the issue.

With GCC 10 attempt to compile the provided example

1. g++ --std=c++17 -o test test.cpp

Where test.cpp is the following

Can you provide a small but working code example?

#include <any>
#include <nlohmann/json.hpp>

using namespace nlohmann;

int main() {
  json j;
  return 0;
}

What is the expected behavior?

Compiles

And what is the actual behavior instead?

Which compiler and operating system are you using?

• Compiler: g++ (GCC) 10.0.1 20200328 (Red Hat 10.0.1-0.11)
• Operating system: Fedora 32

Which version of the library did you use?

• latest release version 3.7.3
• other release - please state the version: ___
• the develop branch

If you experience a compilation error: can you compile and run the unit tests?

• yes
• no - please copy/paste the error message below

[FrancoisChabot]

This is the same as #2129.

The next release will fix the issue, but it's not clear why. I looked a bit into it, and it's starting to look like a compiler bug to my eyes.

The error implies that some template substitution attempts are being performed before basic_json is complete, but the callstack strongly implies that this is being performed after the type is complete. Combine this with the fact that clang handles this fine and that there is no change between the current release and develop that should affect this and, yeah....

[afowles]

Ah my bad didn't see it since it was closed. Thanks!

[kuzkry]

@FrancoisChabot, perhaps it isn't a compiler bug. See this analysis.
