Thread: Weird compilation error in call of private function!

Hi, guys. I'm having some trouble calling a private function from a public one. My compiler errors are pretty vague too. The line in question is line 106

Here's what I'm getting from a build attempt:

Code:

/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/make -j4 -e -f  Makefile'

====2 errors, 2 warnings====

I see a warning -- unused parameter -- but I don't see any errors although 2 are indicated on the last line.

So I totally figured it out. My IDE was giving me an error-as-a-warning kind of thing. That's okay, I guess (it's really not T_T). But there was some commented out code there and I was trying to figure out why and I misinterpreted my compiler's output. I did figure out why code wasn't compiling correctly though. I've pushed up the changes now. I was being so silly! I was using

Code:

decltype(f())

instead of

Code:

decltype(f(std::forward<Args>(args)...))

I feel good now that I finally caught that.
