Bug ID: 116792
Summary: RFE: should we be able to generate diagnostics in HTML
format?
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: diagnostic
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: other
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: dmalcolm at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
Currently we can emit diagnostics as:
* text to stderr
* SARIF to stderr or to a file
* "json" to stderr or to a file
I wonder if we should provide a way to emit diagnostics in HTML form? I'm not
sure it's useful for the command-line tools, but might be helpful for
libdiagnostics and sarif-replay.
I have an experimental patch which adds an HTML output format, but for now I'm
just going to add it as a plugin in the testsuite, rather than a user-facing
feature. In particular, I'd prefer it to be in-tree, given the various
refactorings I'm making to the diagnostics subsystem.
Filing this so that we have a place to keep track of this idea.
