--- Comment #6 from Roland Illig <roland.illig at gmx dot de> --- (In reply to Marek Polacek from comment #5) > Right, but that still doesn't make it significantly easier to grep, I think. Oh, damn, I forgot about the regular expressions. In other contexts I have seen ".expected.", but that was used for quotes instead of parentheses, probably to avoid any Tcl backslashes. Another possibility would be to have a plain "(expected)" comment somewhere in the test code. This would help when grepping, and there are only 10 instances of this string in the whole GCC source tree right now. Or a hint in the main code referring to the test code, but that would be kind of unusual.
