Hello Danny and Joseph, Thank you for your comments. I moved the test case to gcc.dg/format as mentioned. No until now I didn't ran all test-case for this. But I am certain, we need to re-arrange things here. > Some quibles: > > MS uses the "%I" flag as a length specifier for size_t/ptrdiff_t > http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/tcxf1dw6(VS.80).aspx Ok, I changed the formatter defines for this. I reused the .._L flag for the 'I' type, because 'L' is no valid length specifier for MS at all. I am not quite sure if this ok, but it seems to work. > Your patch still retains "I" in its gnu extension sense. > MS printf will get confused by it. I removed the I flag definition now AFAIS. > TODO: > MS printf does not handle "%hh" or "%ll" correctly and does not even > recognize long double. I disabled the hh and removed the floating point use of 'll'. The .._ll flag remains for the I64 specifier. > Also what about MS extension %hc' and '%lc'. This I added to formatter rules.
