Is the following code supposed to compile?



void foo() {
const std::pair<int, int> x = {1, 2};

auto [a, b] = x;

static_assert(std::is_const_v<decltype(a)>);
static_assert(std::is_const_v<decltype(b)>);
}




  • MSVC says "yes!".


  • GCC says "oh no, man!".


  • Clang says "no way!".




So, is this an MSVC bug?



The standard is not straightforward here (I had a quick look), but considering the rules for auto, I suppose, a and b should be copied discarding cv-qualifier.

            The static assertions should fail (so this would be an MSVC bug I guess). Why? Because it's basically the same as the case of:



            void foo() {
            const int x_1 = 1;
            const int x_2 = 2;

            auto a = x_1;
            auto b = x_2;

            static_assert(std::is_const_v<decltype(a)>);
            static_assert(std::is_const_v<decltype(b)>);
            }


            which does indeed fail on MSVC as well.



            In C++ expression types decay on assignment: the auto sees an int, not a const int. Structured binding simply lets you do more than a single auto binding at a time.
