I don't know if this ever has an effect on an output of gcc(are C variable names ever different from C++ ones?), but there are two different trees which should be equal: example1: extern "C"{ extern int a; } extern "C"{ int a; } example2: extern "C"{ extern int a; } int a;
those should be equal I think, but "a" is not DECL_EXTERN_C_P for example2. if "a" is a function it is DECL_EXTERN_C_P in both examples. -- Summary: wrong tree for extern "C" variables Product: gcc Version: 4.0.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P3 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: sstrasser at systemhaus-gruppe dot de CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19474
