Description
This is issue is reported indirectly in cms-sw/cmssw#47697 where this bug lead to an unwanted and failing auto-parsing, leading to a crash as a consequence of the failed auto-parsing.
The root cause is that the name normalization of:
template <size_t I> struct Outer { template <size_t II> struct View {}; };
Outer<128>
Outer<128>::View<128>
is not consistently handled. During dictionary generation we end up with the following:
Outer<128>
Outer<128UL>::View<128>
Note the type suffix in 1 out of the 3 possibility ... when none is (currently) desired.
In the reported case this lead the TProtoClass for Outer<128>::View<128> to have the (normalized) name Outer<128UL>::View<128> while at run-time we look up Outer<128>::View<128> fail to find it in the rootpcm when using the normalized name interface and thus go through a phase of name normalization which (due to the same/similar failed lookup) leads to the need to load the class information in the interpreter (aka auto-parse its headers).

};
using PFRecHitSoA = PFRecHitSoALayout<128UL,false>; // try with 128ul
}
