Issue ID: 22814 Summary: ImportC: C11 lexer deletes escaped new lines during translation Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: dmd Assignee: nob...@puremagic.com Reporter: ibuc...@gdcproject.org Following on from issue 22812, while new lines can't be ignored, they can however be escaped. >From C11 5.1.1.2-2: --- Each instance of a backslash character ( \) immediately followed by a new-line character is deleted, splicing physical source lines to form logical source lines. Only the last backslash on any physical source line shall be eligible for being part of such a splice. A source file that is not empty shall end in a new-line character, which shall not be immediately preceded by a backslash character before any such splicing takes place. --- So whilst issue 22812 is an error, this should be accepted as valid: --- # \ pragma \ pack \ ( \ 2 \ ) struct S { int i; short j; double k; }; # \ pragma \ pack \ ( \ ) --- --
