Hi Richard,
It looks like this patch will reject the following code, which used to compile
fine:
$ cat test.cpp
#include <CoreFoundation/CoreFoundation.h>
typedef CF_ENUM(unsigned, TestEnum) {
A = 2,
B = 3,
};
$ clang++ -std=c++11 -c test.cpp
test.cpp:3:9: error: non-defining declaration of enumeration with a fixed
underlying type is only permitted as a standalone declaration; missing list of
enumerators? [-Welaborated-enum-base]
typedef CF_ENUM(unsigned, TestEnum) {
The macro is defined in CFAvailability.h:
https://opensource.apple.com/source/CF/CF-855.17/CFAvailability.h.auto.html
What’s the best way to fix this?
