Visual Studio 2022 IntelliSense Error E0095

[rpatters1]

I am encountering a strange IntelliSense error in Visual Studio 2022. This is not actually causing the compile to fail or any other issues that I can see. And even weirder, when I click on the error to view the line of code, the error disappears. (I haven't figured out what makes it reappear.) The line of code is line 183:

  char chars_[N + 1];

The error message is here:

For all I know it is a bug in VS 2022. But I thought I would report it in case it is something you wish to know about.

Can suppress some kind of warning or error help?

[rpatters1]

Oh, sure. As I say, the message comes and goes and it's IntelliSense. It doesn't affect the build. I was wondering if maybe there should be a static_assert on N that limits it to whatever is a generous but reasonable value.

[rpatters1]

FWIW: As an experiment I added a static_assert to force N less than UINT16_MAX. So far the error hasn't appeared. (But it's too soon to say if that made a difference.)

an interesting workaround, I thought about the concert, but so far we have C++17. if this solution will be ok, I can add it myself or you can do PR if you want.

Ok I'll submit a PR.
