Bug ID: 109355
Summary: Add a text warning to old gcc online manual stating it
is out of date
Product: gcc
Version: 13.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: web
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: jg at jguk dot org
Target Milestone: ---
Could old GCC documentation release HTML web pages have a text warning at the
top making it clear the documentation is out of date?
ie:
"Warning: This GCC manual is not the latest online documentation <link>"
eg searching for "gcc function attributes error" gives me:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.7.2/gcc/Function-Attributes.html
I noticed popular search engines often suggest out of date GCC docs, eg this
one from 2012.
So I manually browse to
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Function-Attributes.html
Which is fine, I just find it myself, but it would be nice if there was a
reminder at the top of each page, in case someone doesn't check the URL.
