sabel83 added a comment. This pull requests consists of two parts:
a) a hook, which is called during template instantiation events b) a callback, which dumps the details of the events out to standard output Tools like Templight (https://github.com/mikael-s-persson/templight) rely on the hook. The callback is available to make it testable (see the tests, which are part of the pull request) and can be used as a simple way of querying some information about template instantiations if needed. 1. Testing on larger software: Templight is based on the hook and Metashell (http://metashell.org) is using Templight intensively. We have a branch of Metashell using the YAML output for template debugging (https://github.com/sabel83/metashell/tree/use_templight_dump). 2. What do you mean by regression tests? We have run the clang-test target successfully on the patched code (which has the hook). Note that the hook this pull request provides is implemented as a ProgramAction. It is not intended to be used together with other program actions, I don't see how we could turn it on for other tests (if that is what you referred to). https://reviews.llvm.org/D5767 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
