[PATCH] improve diagnostic message about wrong redeclaration

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The current message is very long (in most cases the position
of the previous declaration is past the 80th column) and,
while saying that the types differ, doesn't show these types.

Change this by splitting the message in 2 parts:
- first, on the current position, the main message
  and the type of the current declaration.
- then the type of the previous declaration on its
  own position.
