Thanks for your acknowledgement that it should usually work. I have noticed a moment ago that a blank line is not marked by the SmPL asterisk operator (for a small source code example) so far. Can such whitespace characters be also preserved there anyhow? >> Can these data be moved to an other function (or macro definition)? > > Yes.

How will the software behaviour evolve if I stumble on the message “Fatal error: exception Coccinelle_modules.Common.Timeout” after passing the parameter “--timeout 123” for a change attempt with a C++ source file? (Am I too impatient here?) Regards, Markus _______________________________________________ Cocci mailing list [email protected] https://systeme.lip6.fr/mailman/listinfo/cocci
