/*************************************************************************
This version detects ambiguous base classes and private base classes
correctly, and was devised by Rani Sharoni.
Explanation by Terje Slettebo and Rani Sharoni.
Let's take the multiple base class below as an example, and the following
will also show why there's not a problem with private or ambiguous base
class:
struct B {};
struct B1 : B {};
struct B2 : B {};
struct D : private B1, private B2 {};
is_base_and_derived<B, D>::value;
First, some terminology:
SC - Standard conversion
UDC - User-defined conversion
A user-defined conversion sequence consists of an SC, followed by an UDC,
followed by another SC. Either SC may be the identity conversion.
When passing the default-constructed Host object to the overloaded check_sig()
functions (initialization 8.5/14/4/3), we have several viable implicit
conversion sequences:
For "static no_type check_sig(B const volatile *, int)" we have the conversion
sequences:
C -> C const (SC - Qualification Adjustment) -> B const volatile* (UDC)
C -> D const volatile* (UDC) -> B1 const volatile* / B2 const volatile* ->
B const volatile* (SC - Conversion)
For "static yes_type check_sig(D const volatile *, T)" we have the conversion
sequence:
C -> D const volatile* (UDC)
According to 13.3.3.1/4, in context of user-defined conversion only the
standard conversion sequence is considered when selecting the best viable
function, so it only considers up to the user-defined conversion. For the
first function this means choosing between C -> C const and C -> C, and it
chooses the latter, because it's a proper subset (13.3.3.2/3/2) of the
former. Therefore, we have:
C -> D const volatile* (UDC) -> B1 const volatile* / B2 const volatile* ->
B const volatile* (SC - Conversion)
C -> D const volatile* (UDC)
Here, the principle of the "shortest subsequence" applies again, and it
chooses C -> D const volatile*. This shows that it doesn't even need to
consider the multiple paths to B, or accessibility, as that possibility is
eliminated before it could possibly cause ambiguity or access violation.
If D is not derived from B, it has to choose between C -> C const -> B const
volatile* for the first function, and C -> D const volatile* for the second
function, which are just as good (both requires a UDC, 13.3.3.2), had it not
been for the fact that "static no_type check_sig(B const volatile *, int)" is
not templated, which makes C -> C const -> B const volatile* the best choice
(13.3.3/1/4), resulting in "no".
Also, if Host::operator B const volatile* hadn't been const, the two
conversion sequences for "static no_type check_sig(B const volatile *, int)", in
the case where D is derived from B, would have been ambiguous.
