This creates a const reference to a\ntemporary, which is valid in C++, and extends the lifetime of the\ntemporary to the lifetime of the reference.\n\nHowever, lifetime extension in range-based for loops is considered as a\nsign of a potential issue, as a temporary is created for every\niteration, which can be costly, and the usage of a reference in the\nrange declaration doesn't make it obvious that the code isn't simply\nbinding a reference to an existing object. gcc 11, with the\n-Wrange-loop-construct option, flags this:\n\nuvcvideo.cpp:432:33: error: loop variable 'name' of type 'const string&' {aka 'const std::__cxx11::basic_string<cha\nr>&'} binds to a temporary constructed from type 'const char* const' [-Werror=range-loop-construct]\n|   432 |         for (const std::string &name : { \"idVendor\", \"idProduct\" }) {\n|       |                                 ^~~~\n\nTo please the compiler, make the range variable a const char *. This may\nbring a tiny performance improvement, as the name is only used once, in\na location where the compiler can use\n\n\toperator+(const std::string &, const char *)\n\ninstead of\n\n\toperator+(const std::string &, const std::string &)\n\nSigned-off-by: Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com>\nReviewed-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>\n\nUse a const char * type instead of auto, and update the commit message\naccordingly.\n\nSigned-off-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>\n---\n src/libcamera/pipeline/uvcvideo/uvcvideo.cpp | 2 +-\n 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)","diff":"diff --git a/src/libcamera/pipeline/uvcvideo/uvcvideo.cpp b/src/libcamera/pipeline/uvcvideo/uvcvideo.cpp\nindex 031f96e28449..b6c6ade5ebaf 100644\n--- a/src/libcamera/pipeline/uvcvideo/uvcvideo.cpp\n+++ b/src/libcamera/pipeline/uvcvideo/uvcvideo.cpp\n@@ -429,7 +429,7 @@ std::string PipelineHandlerUVC::generateId(const UVCCameraData *data)\n \n \t/* Creata a device ID from the USB devices vendor and product ID. */\n \tstd::string deviceId;\n-\tfor (const std::string &name : { \"idVendor\", \"idProduct\" }) {\n+\tfor (const char *name : { \"idVendor\", \"idProduct\" }) {\n \t\tstd::ifstream file(path + \"/../\" + name);\n \n \t\tif (!file.is_open())\n","prefixes":["libcamera-devel","v2"]}
