Hello All
I would suppose that the preprocessor (ie libcpp) might be enhanced to
use plugins. I can see several scenarii for them:
1. a plugin could enhance the way #include directives are processed
2. a plugin could add additional builtin macros, like __COUNTER__, which
would be specific to the plugin.
3. a plugin could add extra CPP directives (like #ident)
What do you think? Probably 1 is harder to implement than 2 or 3, but I
am not very familiar with libcpp/
The http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2009-07/msg00009.html mail suggested me
the plugins could be useful in the preprocessor.
Currently, there is no plugin specific code inside libcpp/
Regards.
