using gcc-4.3.2 and gcc-4.5 snapshot gcc-core-4.5-20090924.tar.bz2 and running 'gcc -dv -da test.c' to generate graph output files noticed there are few files with syntax error when running checks using a script like this: #!/bin/sh rm -v -f *.ps pre= rec=*.vcg post= for i in $pre${rec}; do ./xvcg -silent -psoutput $i.ps $i done with gcc-4.5 these syntax errors appear: (unexpected graph: statement) Syntax error (test.c.144r.into_cfglayout.vcg: l:410 p:7): Unexpected lexem GRAPH "graph:" (parse error) ! Syntax error (test.c.145r.jump.vcg: l:410 p:7): Unexpected lexem GRAPH "graph:" (parse error) ! Syntax error (test.c.169r.reginfo.vcg: l:410 p:7): Unexpected lexem GRAPH "graph:" (parse error) ! with gcc-4.3.2: these syntax errors appear: (unexpected graph: statement) Syntax error (test.c.138r.into_cfglayout.vcg: l:410 p:7): Unexpected lexem GRAPH "graph:" (parse error) ! Syntax error (test.c.139r.jump.vcg: l:410 p:7): Unexpected lexem GRAPH "graph:" (parse error) ! Syntax error (test.c.159r.regclass.vcg: l:410 p:7): Unexpected lexem GRAPH "graph:" (parse error) ! because the graph file has no indentation cannot easily see why this error happens, it looks like this: } } edge: { sourcename: "gcd.51" targetname: "gcd.999999" } node: { title: "gcd.999999" label: "END" } } graph: { title: "main" <---here syntax error happens folding: 1 hidden: 2 node: { title: "main.0" } the source in gcc/graph.c looks fine and generates for the other output files correct graph output. does this mean this error comes from for example unusual rtl in gcc in specific cases ? is there a easy fix for this ? Thanks, tys.
