Basically, a namespace is a "context" for declarations, and the DWARF mechanism for making declarations from one context available in another context is with DW_TAG_imported_declaration and DW_TAG_imported_module. The C++ spec describes the behavior "as if" there was an explicit using directive, and DW_TAG_imported_module is the DWARF mechanism for describing a using directive.
The meaning of DWARF is determined by the DWARF spec, not the C++ spec, and the DWARF spec does not say there's anything special about a namespace that has no name. There is a perfectly reasonable DWARF mechanism for getting the desired effect, so there's no reason for DWARF to make a special rule for an unnamed namespace. Therefore, an anonymous namespace should be explicitly imported into the containing namespace. The explicit import would be marked artificial of course. http://reviews.llvm.org/D15881 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
