Implement parsing of nested-name-specifiers that involve template-ids, e.g.,
std::vector<int>::allocator_type When we parse a template-id that names a type, it will become either a template-id annotation (which is a parsed representation of a template-id that has not yet been through semantic analysis) or a typename annotation (where semantic analysis has resolved the template-id to an actual type), depending on the context. We only produce a type in contexts where we know that we only need type information, e.g., in a type specifier. Otherwise, we create a template-id annotation that can later be "upgraded" by transforming it into a typename annotation when the parser needs a type. This occurs, for example, when we've parsed "std::vector<int>" above and then see the '::' after it. However, it means that when writing something like this: template<> class Outer::Inner<int> { ... }; We have two tokens to represent Outer::Inner<int>: one token for the nested name specifier Outer::, and one template-id annotation token for Inner<int>, which will be passed to semantic analysis to define the class template specialization. Most of the churn in the template tests in this patch come from an improvement in our error recovery from ill-formed template-ids. llvm-svn: 65467
