Thanks. Isn't it unprecedented for pragmas to introduce scopes and to be
un-ignorable? -- Andrei
(I'll assume you mean introduce scopes as in the {} syntax, not the way
Walter's proposal introduces scopes)
No, pragma(mangle) works in a very similar way, so there is a precedent. It
also serves a very similar purpose and can actually accomplish the same
things, cpp_mangle would just be a more specialized tool.
Pragmas can be used with all three attribute syntaxes:
Single declaration:
pragma(blah)
int x;
Block:
pragma(blah)
{
int x;
}
Label:
pragma(blah):
int x;
