IIRC there are currently 2 places these variants could come into play: - first is the symbol index page itself, symbols that have ` (foo)` next to them have variants and should still be ignored (e.g. std::remove variant of cstdio shouldn't be preserved in the scope of this patch) - second is inside the detail pages for symbols, e.g. [std::atomic](http://go/std::atomic), we can have headers for different declarations, they're clearly different variants so we shouldn't add such symbols into the mapping `_ParseSymbolPage` already does some detection of declarations in between headers. in the scope of this patch, we should keep ignoring both. ================ Comment at: clang/tools/include-mapping/cppreference_parser.py:183 for root_dir, page_name, namespace in parse_pages: - symbols.extend(_GetSymbols(pool, root_dir, page_name, namespace, - variants_to_accept)) + symbols.extend(_GetSymbols(pool, root_dir, page_name, namespace, variants_to_accept)) finally: ---------------- nit: formatting ================ Comment at: clang/tools/include-mapping/cppreference_parser.py:174 - # std::remove<> has variant algorithm. - "std::remove": ("algorithm"), - } ---------------- VitaNuo wrote: > kadircet wrote: > > this is actually checking for something else (sorry for the confusing > > naming). > > > > the `variant` here refers to library name mentioned in parentheses (this is > > same problem as `std::move`) on the std symbol index page > > https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/symbol_index (e.g. `remove<>() > > (algorithm)`). by getting rid of this we're introducing a regression, as > > previously `std::remove` wouldn't be recognized by the library, but now > > it'll be recognized and we'll keep suggesting `<cstdio>` for it. > > > > so we should actually keep this around. > Ok, I can keep this out of this patch, but we'll have to remove this logic > evetually when we deal with overloads. > > I have a slight suspicion that this code might be buggy, because it suggests > that one _of_ the variants should be accepted.

Surely, I wasn't saying this should stay here forever, i am just saying that what's done in the scope of this patch doesn't really address the issues "worked around" by this piece. > I have a slight suspicion that this code might be buggy, because it suggests > that one _of_ the variants should be accepted.

Is this (more) > satisfactory for now compared to skipping algorithm due to being an overload? in the end this should probably look like {algorithm, cstdio}, but as mentioned elsewhere, this is not the same problem as "same symbol being provided by multiple header" but rather "different symbols having same name and different headers". so treatment of it shouldn't change by this patch.
