This patch removes another case of temporary tree chains from the ObjC compiler. When the parser finds a
@class NSArray; declaration, it would call objc_declare_class() passing as argument a temporary tree list containing the identifier. This tree list is created, used for the function call, then discarded. Btw, this made some sense when you have a list with multiple identifiers, as in @class NSArray, NSString; as they are all passed in the same linked list. it is still cleaner and more efficient to call objc_declare_class() for each identifier, as opposed to creating a temporary tree list, populating it with the identifiers, then calling objc_declare_class() which then iterates over the temporary tree list to read the identifiers, and then the list gets thrown away. The patch speeds things up but the effect is very small; the GNUstep system headers do contain about 800 @class declarations or so, so the patch typically saves something like 1k allocations or so when compiling a file. That is probably a 0.05% speedup (order of magnitude). But we get rid of a the tree list. :-) The ObjC++ parser needed a bit of changes, but while changing it I also made the ObjC++ parsing code almost identical to the ObjC one, which simplifies maintenance. Ok to commit ?
