You can certainly construct cases where the different lexing rules in different language modes allow you to detect which language you're in from within the preprocessor ([1](https://eel.is/c++draft/diff.cpp11.lex) [2](https://eel.is/c++draft/diff.cpp14.lex#2) [3](https://eel.is/c++draft/diff.cpp03.lex#1)) or where enabling more language mode flags may reject valid code. It may be good enough for what the scanner is trying to do, but I think it's a stretch to say that it's sound. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/93753 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
