We frequently do operations on the various (upcoming) range types. The cascading if/switch statements of is_a<> are getting annoying and repetitive. The classic visitor pattern provides a clean way to implement classes handling various range types without the need for endless conditionals. It also helps us keep polluting the vrange API with functionality that should frankly live elsewhere. In a follow-up patch I will add pretty printing facilities for vrange and unify them with the dumping code. This is a prime candidate for the pattern, as the code isn't performance sensitive. Other instances (?? the dispatch code in range-ops ??) may still benefit from the hand coded conditionals, since they elide vtables in favor of the discriminator bit in vrange. Tested on x86-64 Linux. gcc/ChangeLog: * value-range.cc (irange::accept): New. (unsupported_range::accept): New. * value-range.h (class vrange_visitor): New. (class vrange): Add accept method. (class unsupported_range): Same. (class Value_Range): Same.

The manuals, and some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the individual source files for details. The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information as HTML and plain text. The source of this information is gcc/doc/install.texi. The installation information includes details of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs.

See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ for how to report bugs usefully. Copyright years on GCC source files may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that could otherwise be listed individually.
