This implements the -gnateu switch which causes subsequent unrecognized
style (-gnaty), warning (-gnatw), and validity (-gnatV) switches to be
ignored generating a warning message only. This is useful when compiling
a set of sources developed with a later version of the compiler using an
earlier version of the compiler (of course this earlier version must
implement the -gnateu switch).
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk
2013-10-14 Robert Dewar <[email protected]>
* gnat_ugn.texi: Document -gnateu switch.
* opt.ads (Ignore_Unrecognized_VWY_Switches): New switch.
* stylesw.adb: Ignore unrecognized switch if
Ignore_Unrecognized_VWY_Switches set.
* switch-c.adb: Implement -gnateu (sets
Ignore_Unrecognized_VWY_Switches).
* validsw.adb: Ignore unrecognized switch if
Ignore_Unrecognized_VWY_Switches set.
* warnsw.adb: Ignore unrecognized switch if
Ignore_Unrecognized_VWY_Switches set.
