Amadini. This change introduces a new expression node type, OffsetOfExpr, that describes __builtin_offsetof. Previously, __builtin_offsetof was implemented using a unary operator whose subexpression involved various synthesized array-subscript and member-reference expressions, which was ugly and made it very hard to instantiate as a template. OffsetOfExpr represents the AST more faithfully, with proper type source information and a more compact representation. OffsetOfExpr also has support for dependent __builtin_offsetof expressions; it can be value-dependent, but will never be type-dependent (like sizeof or alignof). This commit introduces template instantiation for __builtin_offsetof as well. There are two major caveats to this patch: 1) CodeGen cannot handle the case where __builtin_offsetof is not a constant expression, so it produces an error. So, to avoid regressing in C, we retain the old UnaryOperator-based __builtin_offsetof implementation in C while using the shiny new OffsetOfExpr implementation in C++. The old implementation can go away once we have proper CodeGen support for this case, which we expect won't cause much trouble in C++. 2) __builtin_offsetof doesn't work well with non-POD class types, particularly when the designated field is found within a base class. I will address this in a subsequent patch. Fixes PR5880 and a bunch of assertions when building Boost.Python tests. llvm-svn: 102542
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// // C Language Family Front-end //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// Welcome to Clang. This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler intrastructure project. Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer. If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant web sites. Here are some pointers: Information on Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/ Building and using Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html Clang Static Analyzer: http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/ Information on the LLVM project: http://llvm.org/ If you have questions or comments about Clang, a great place to discuss them is on the Clang development mailing list: http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/cfe-dev If you find a bug in Clang, please file it in the LLVM bug tracker: http://llvm.org/bugs/
