We were considering making some changes in the interaction with Coccinelle that would break backward compatability:
1. Currently regular expression matching is indicated by ~=. Perl uses =~ so we were considering to use that instead. It might make it more clear that the regular expression matches a substring rather than the whole identifier. 2. Currently the options have the form, eg, -no_includes. We could change them to eg --no-includes. 3. The comment was made that the two names cocci(nelle) and spatch are confusing. Should we more consistently use one or the other? Which? (Personally I prefer cocci(nelle), because it is more consistent with the documentation and publications, and because I don't think spatch is unique.) 4. Are there any options that should have new names? 5. Anything else that would involve removing something? julia _______________________________________________ Cocci mailing list [email protected] http://lists.diku.dk/mailman/listinfo/cocci (Web access from inside DIKUs LAN only)
