Hello Guys,
I am trying to come up with an ABI compatibility document for different
versions of GCC - starting from 3.0. Can anyone point out relevant bug
reports/items in release notes. I also want to document ABI bugs which
were fixed - which would cause incompatibilty among different versions
of GCC for corner cases. The document would contain examples of the
corner cases as well.
Made up example : 3.2.0 -> 3.2.1 C++ ABI changed for i686 for function
pointers which take complex as arguments.
Is there a document already available somewhere?
The changelog entries which effect the ABI should be marked [ABI change]
or something close to that (The C++ specific ones definitely)
