The following C++1y code results in a crash:
struct X {
int m = 10;
int n = [this](auto) { return m; }(20);
};
When implicitly instantiating the generic lambda's call operator specialization body, Sema is unable to determine the current 'this' type when transforming the MemberExpr 'm' - since it looks for the nearest enclosing FunctionDeclDC - which is obviously null.
I considered two ways to fix this:
1) In InstantiateFunctionDefinition, when the context is saved after the lambda scope info is created, retain the 'this' pointer.
2) Teach getCurrentThisType() to recognize it is within a generic lambda within an NSDMI/default-initializer and return the appropriate this type.
I chose to implement #2 (though I confess I do not have a compelling reason for choosing it over #1).

Thank you!

Both Richard and I felt that the current wording in the working paper needed some tweaking - Please see http://llvm-reviews.chandlerc.com/D2035 for additional context and references to core-reflector messages that discuss wording tweaks.
What is implemented is what we had intended to specify in Bristol; but, recently felt that the specification might benefit from some tweaking and fleshing.
As a rough attempt to explain the semantics: If a nested lambda with a default-capture names a variable within its body, and if the enclosing full expression that contains the name of that variable is instantiation-dependent - then an enclosing lambda that is capture-ready (i.e. within a non-dependent context) must capture that variable, if all intervening nested lambdas can potentially capture that variable if they need to, and all intervening parent lambdas of the capture-ready lambda can and do capture the variable.
Of note, 'this' capturing is also currently underspecified in the working paper for generic lambdas. What is implemented here is if the set of candidate functions in a nested generic lambda includes both static and non-static member functions (regardless of viability checking - i.e. num and type of parameters/arguments) - and if all intervening nested-inner lambdas between the capture-ready lambda and the function-call containing nested lambda can capture 'this' and if all enclosing lambdas of the capture-ready lambda can capture 'this', then 'this' is speculatively captured by that capture-ready lambda.
Hopefully a paper for the C++ committee (that Richard and I had started some preliminary work on) is forthcoming.
This essentially makes generic lambdas feature complete, except for known bugs. The more prominent ones (and the ones I am currently aware of) being:
- generic lambdas and init-captures are broken - but a patch that fixes this is already in the works ...
- nested variadic expansions such as:
auto K = [](auto ... OuterArgs) {
vp([=](auto ... Is) {
decltype(OuterArgs) OA = OuterArgs;
return 0;
}(5)...);
return 0;
};
auto M = K('a', ' ', 1, " -- ", 3.14);
currently cause crashes. I think I know how to fix this (since I had done so in my initial implementation) - but it will probably take some work and back & forth with Doug and Richard.
A warm thanks to all who provided feedback - and especially to Doug Gregor and Richard Smith for their pivotal guidance: their insight and prestidigitation in such matters is boundless!
Now let's hope this commit doesn't upset the buildbot gods ;)
Thanks!
