As in C++, new context-dependent keywords are introduced by various declarations. We use a few more categories of such keywords than the proposed standard grammar does (see Section A.1 of [ANSI95]), because we want to distinguish type definition names and template names for classes from non-classes. Also, note that an original-class-name is the name of something that is a declared as a class. See section 5.2.3.2 Class and Namespace Names for the syntax of class-name and namespace-name. See section 4.6 Identifiers for the syntax of identifier.
context-dependent-keyword ::= typedef-non-class-or-enum-name | typedef-class-name | typedef-enum-name | original-namespace-name | namespace-alias-name | original-class-name | original-enum-name | template-non-class-name | template-class-name typedef-non-class-or-enum-name ::= identifier typedef-class-name ::= identifier typedef-enum-name ::= identifier original-namespace-name ::= identifier namespace-alias-name ::= identifier original-class-name ::= identifier original-enum-name ::= identifier template-non-class-name ::= identifier template-class-name ::= identifier
An identifier is recognized as a typedef-class-name
if it was declared (in an appropriate scope) by a declaration using
the typedef
decl-specifier (see section 5.2 Declaration Specifiers),
and if it declares a class.
Similarly, an identifier is recognized as a typedef-enum-name
if it was declared as a typedef
to an enum.
Other identifiers declared in a typedef
declaration
are recognized as typedef-non-class-or-enum-names when used later.
The same distinction is made in template declarations
(see section 8 Template Specifications) between a template-non-class-name
and a template-class-name.
Similarly, an identifier is recognized as an original-enum-name if it was declared with an enum-specifier (see section 5.3 Enumeration Declarations). Again, an identifier is recognized as an original-class-name if it was declared with a class-specifier (see section 7 Class Specifications). Similar remarks hold for identifiers recognized as original-namespace-names or namespace-alias-names (see section 5.5 C++ Namespace and Using Declarations).
