For one of the justifications of C++
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2012-11/msg00070.html
speficially to upstream the 64-bit inferior offsets/sizes as present in many
patches posted by Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@redhat.com>:
It would be enough to have GDB (neither gdbserver nor IPA) compilable as C++.
Explicit configure option would be required. It would be used to create the
64-bit offsets patch and then also during nightly regression testing to catch
possible following 64-bit offsets type violations/regressions.
Is it enough plan to justify the -Wc++-compat compatibility step?
That is to update and check-in archer-ratmice-compile-Wc++-compat.
Thanks,
Jan
