--- Comment #13 from David Malcolm <dmalcolm at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
I'm experimenting with a new
-fdiagnostics-add-output=<output-format-specifier>
with this rough grammar:
<output-format-specifier>: <output-format-name>
<output-format-name> ":" key_value_pairs
<output-format-name>: "text"
: "sarif"
(and others could be added by GCC plugins)
<key-value-pairs>: <key-value-pair>
: <key-value-pair> "," <key-value-pairs>
<key-value-pair>: <key> "=" <value>
<key>: string without a '='
<value>: string without a ','
i.e. an output format name followed by zero or more comma-separated key=value
pairs.
Some examples:
-fdiagnostics-add-output=text:color=yes
-fdiagnostics-add-output=sarif:file={output-filename}.sarif
where e.g. {output-filename} would be substituted with the output filename from
the gcc invocation.
More complicated examples:
Specifiying the SARIF version (see bug 116301):
-fdiagnostics-add-output=sarif:version=2.1,file={output-filename}.2.1.sarif
-fdiagnostics-add-output=sarif:version=2.2-prerelease,file={output-filename}.2.2.sarif
Supporting experiments with hierarchical diagnostics (see bug 116253):
-fdiagnostics-add-output=text:experimental-hierarchical-diagnostics=yes
and so forth.
Thoughts?
