If a feature like this were to be officially supported, it would open the doors to many applications who might want to use the gcc to parse its files for them. Gcc now support plugins which in my mind a better way to support applications which want to use gcc to parse sources. It is a good idea, with minimal impact, it just requires a forked gcc to have its features. I don't think it will be that minimal as people will depend on the format being constant between versions which I doubt will happen. -- Summary: Generate an XML dump of the parse tree Product: gcc Version: 4.3.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P3 Component: driver AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: jrevans1 at earthlink dot net http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43334 -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43334

--- Comment #2 from manu at gcc dot gnu dot org 2010-03-11 21:10 --- James, you probably can implement this as a GCC plugin, not native or forked GCC needed, as Andrew said. But, in any case, you should seek developers from outside the core GCC for your project (and if possible, bring them closer to GCC), because core GCC developers are already overworked with ongoing projects and this, as far as I know, is not an interesting feature for them. -- manu at gcc dot gnu dot org changed: What|Removed |Added CC||manu at gcc dot gnu dot org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43334
