Hello, What are exactly GCC code types, defined in gcc/coretypes.h?
Of course, they are very important types used in GCC. And there are probably wired in gengtype (but maybe not all of them; I didn't check for all; certainly gengtype handle tree & gimple specially in some way.). However, I don't understand why gimple_seq_node is a core type. It seems rarely used (outside of gimple*.[ch] files), and I would imagine it could be kept in gimple.h. I also don't understand why union section; typedef union section section; struct cl_target_option; struct cl_optimization; should be kept in gcc/coretypes.h I could imagine that the transition to C++ might have to C++-ify these core types (all of gcc/coretypes.h) very quickly, or on the contrary to keep them as they are, without making a class of them, for a long time. Do we have a clear criterium to add, keep, or remove a type from gcc/coretypes.h?
