Bug ID: 61934 Summary: C++11 generalised attributes and plugins don't work Product: gcc Version: 4.9.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: plugins Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: tom.k.cook at gmail dot com Created attachment 33195 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=33195&action=edit Pre-processed GCC plugin defining the Test attribute. Defining a custom attribute using the register_attribute function does not interact correctly with C++11 attributes. The attached, preprocessed plugin source (my_plugin.ii) is compiled with the following command-line: g++ -fPIC -fno-rtti -std=c++11 -save-temps -I/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.8/plugin/include -c my_plugin.cc -o my_plugin.o g++ -fPIC -fno-rtti -std=c++11 -save-temps -shared my_plugin.o -o my_plugin.so The plugin is tested with this source: $ cat test.cc void __attribute__((Test)) Foo() { } [[Test]] void Bar() { } which is compiled with this command-line: g++ -fPIC -fno-rtti -std=c++11 -save-temps -fplugin=./my_plugin.so -c test.cc -o test.o The first function definition is compiled without errors or warnings but the second function definition gives this warning: test.cc:4:19: warning: ‘Test’ attribute directive ignored [-Wattributes] [[Test]] void Bar() { ^ The two are supposed to be equivalent. Changing the plugin to register a scoped attribute using register_scoped_attributes works correctly. The GCC information given below is from version 4.8, but I have tested this with the GCC 4.9.1 build available in the Ubuntu toolchains PPA with the same result. Output of g++ -v: Using built-in specs.
