I will be sending 6 patches that implement all the changes we
have been making on the cxx-conversion branch. As described in
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2012-08/msg00015.html, these patches
change the default bootstrap process so that stage 1 always
builds with a C++ compiler.
Other than the bootstrap change, the patches make no functional
changes to the compiler. Everything should build as it does now
in trunk.
I have split the merge in 6 main patches. I will send these
patches to the respective maintainers and gcc-patches.
Please remember that the patches conform to the new C++ coding
guidelines (http://gcc.gnu.org/codingconventions.html#Cxx_Conventions):
1- Configuration changes.
2- Re-write of VEC.
3- Re-write of gengtype to support C++ templates and
user-provided marking functions.
4- New hash table class.
5- Re-write double_int.
6- Implement tree macros as inline functions so they can be
called from gdb.
Thanks for all the reviews.
Barring any last minute blockers, I would like to schedule the final
merge sometime this week. Ideally, trunk should be free of activity
while I do the final test and commit.
This merge touches several files, so I'm thinking that the best time is
going to be on Thu 16/Aug around 2:00 GMT.
Once the merge lands in trunk, Lawrence and I will be monitoring
automatic builders for any problems that may show up. In the next few
days we will be doing follow-up patches for VEC, hash table and gengtype.
Thanks. Diego.
