12754,operator| overload for boost::range_details::replace_holder is not SFINAE friendly,Tim Wynants <tim.wynants+boost@…>,Neil Groves,"If I provide a simple operator | overload for my template class and I provide a  class template specializations with for instance a boost range (so that adl adds  the boost::range_details namespace for overloads) then the compiler chokes on the non-SFINEA friendly overload

{{{
friendly boost::range_details::operator|(
    SinglePassRange,  
    const replace_holder<BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME range_value<SinglePassRange>::type> )
}}}

Example:


{{{
namespace local
{
    template<typename T>
    struct boo {};

    // this overload is not prefered when T is a boost::range::xxx_range
    template<typename T, typename U>
    auto operator|(boo<T>, U)
    {
        return false;
    }

    void finds_local_operator_overload()
    {
        std::vector<int> xs;

        // works like expected and calls local::operator|
        auto f = boo<decltype(xs)>{} | xs;
    }

    void prefers_boost_range_detail_replaced_operator_overload_instead_of_local_operator()
    {
        std::vector<int> xs;
        // compiler error because it tries to call 'boost::range_detail::operator|'
        auto filtered = xs | boost::adaptors::filtered([](auto &&x){ return x % 2; });
        auto f = boo<decltype(filtered)>{} | xs;
    }
}
}}}




clang error (msvc reports almost the same):

This can be easily prevented by making the operator overload SFINEA friendly.
