I'm writing this small application trying to test about fold expressions and i can't get it to compile, it complaints about ambiguous request on method Play, i don't understand why the signature of the function Play should be different on both calls..
#include <iostream>
#include <any>
using namespace std;
struct A
{
void play() const
{
std::cout << "A..." << std::endl;
}
};
struct B
{
void play() const
{
std::cout << "B..." << std::endl;
}
};
template<typename TKey>
struct BaseValue
{
void Play(const TKey& arg)
{
arg.play();
}
};
template<typename... Keys>
struct MyMap : public BaseValue<Keys>...
{
};
int main()
{
MyMap<A, B> oMyMap;
A a;
oMyMap.Play(a)
return 0;
}
Beside the const
ness mentioned in the comment, the fix is
template<typename... Keys>
struct MyMap : public BaseValue<Keys>...
{
using BaseValue<Keys>::Play ...;
};
The initial problem, has to do with name-lookup, which happens before overload resolution, see [this answer] https://stackoverflow.com/a/60775944/2412846) and the linked duplicates.
