But would those languages use the same language design for these scopes as OpenCL if they did expose them, as opposed to some more elaborate scoping specification? My objection is not that the concept is inherently OpenCL-specific, it's that the presentation in the language might be inherently OpenCL-specific, which makes staying in the opencl namespace is prudent. https://reviews.llvm.org/D28691 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
