minimal testcase

coeff(Index) and coeffRef(Index), and corresponding operator()(Index) and operator[], should probably require LinearAccessBit, right?

The attached testcase is how I came across this: I was mistakenly using operator()(Index) on a Block<MatrixXf>, so I was addressing coefficients outside of the block.

Also attaching a patch that does this static-assertion; but I can't push it at the moment, because it seems to be breaking lots of tests, and I don't currently have time to look into them...

Comment 2 Gael Guennebaud 2015-11-12 16:30:30 UTC
This flags is now handled by the evaluator, so the test should be internal::evaluator<Derived>::Flags&LinearAccessBit, but that does not seem to be sufficient. If I relax it to:

bool(internal::evaluator<Derived>::Flags & LinearAccessBit) || Derived::IsVectorAtCompileTime

then everything compile again meaning that some vector expressions does not have the LinearAccessBit flag...
