        <pre>Hi, there,

clang accepts this code --- test.cc:

template<class> ;
int main(){return 0;}

which contains a empty declaration in a template declaration.

In clang-trunk, clang just give a warning and then compile it successfully.

$clang++-trunk test.cc
test.cc:1:16: warning: declaration does not declare anything
[-Wmissing-declarations]
template<class>;               ^
1 warning generated.


But in gcc, icc, or msvc, they all fail to compile it.

For example, in gcc

$g++ test.cc
test.cc:1:16: error: expected unqualified-id before ‘;’ token
    1 | template<class>;
      |        
        ^
I also tested in other released clang versions, they all accepts test.cc.</pre>
        </div>
