------- Additional Comments From lothar at xcerla dot com 2004-10-01 21:57 ------- STLfilt does a pretty good job already. It would be a GREAT use to the average gcc user if gcc only could mimic the behaviour of STLfilt. I consider myself quite fluent with STL/templates but even I have trouble to parse these long error messages. How much more trouble is it to a novice user. And even if the parsing fails in some situations; it's still worthwile in a lot other situations. In case it fails to parse the message or the user wants full control gcc could provide a switch to turn it off, so she can look (again) to the lengthy full error message. Its just that I'd like to have gcc do the message parsing than having another tool to wrap around gcc which may or may not work with different build environments.
