I don't believe Tom uses that email address anymore. I have CCed the address he tried to use to post to the list. Just in case Tom didn't yet, I have added a clarification request (see below). But didn't get a issue number yet. Note that Jakub also said he added a request for Fortran language version constants that also hasn't shown up on the website. BTW. That page says it is for DWARF Version 4 Standard issues. Not for DWARFv5 drafts. I have been using the following draft for prototyping some new things http://www.dwarfstd.org/doc/dwarf5.20141029.pdf I don't know if that is the latest version. Or when the committee expects feedback on the DWARFv5 draft document. I haven't had time to read the whole document yet. It would be nice to have a date/deadline before when feedback on the DWARFv5 draft should be given. Thanks, Mark Subject: DW_LANG_C_plus_plus_03 clarification Name: Mark Wielaard Email: m...@redhat.com Section: 3.1.1 Page: 57 Type: Clarification The DWARFv5 draft document http://www.dwarfstd.org/doc/dwarf5.20141029.pdf in Section 3.1.1, Normal and Partial Compilation Unit Entries, contains Table 3.1: Language names which has an entry for DW_LANG_C_plus_plus_03 ISO C++:2003. The same constant can be found in 7.12 Source Languages as Table 7.17: Language encodings. As discussed on the DWARF mailinglist http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.standards.dwarf/218 it is unclear when a DWARF producer should use that language constant, or what a DWARF consumer can expect when that language constant is used since C++03 does not change the language in any way from C++98 represented by DW_LANG_c_plus_plus. Is DW_LANG_c_plus_plus_03 constant is actually needed? And if adopted by DWARFv5, how should a producer and consumer need to interpret it? _______________________________________________ Dwarf-Discuss mailing list Dwarf-Discuss@lists.dwarfstd.org http://lists.dwarfstd.org/listinfo.cgi/dwarf-discuss-dwarfstd.org
