<P>[Accepted as a DR at the March, 2024 meeting.]</P>



<P>
<A HREF="2237.html">Issue 2237</A> sought to
disallow <I>simple-template-id</I>s as constructor names, by referring
to the injected-class-name.  However, 11.1 [<A href="https://wg21.link/class.pre#2">class.pre</A>] paragraph 2 specifies:</P>

<BLOCKQUOTE>

The <I>class-name</I> is also bound in the scope of the class
(template) itself; this is known as the <I>injected-class-name</I>.

</BLOCKQUOTE>

<P>The grammar non-terminal <I>class-name</I> includes the option of
a <I>simple-template-id</I> (for declaring a partial
specialization).</P>

<P><B>Proposed resolution (approved by CWG 2023-11-11):</B></P>

<P>Change in 11.1 [<A href="https://wg21.link/class.pre#2">class.pre</A>] paragraph 2 as follows:</P>

<BLOCKQUOTE>

The <INS>component name of the</INS> <I>class-name</I> is also bound in
the scope of the class (template) itself; this is known as
the <I>injected-class-name</I>. ...
