GCC Gets PCH Support And New Parser

Posted by timothy on Monday January 13, 2003 @07:33AM from the it's-warm-blooded dept.

Screaming Lunatic writes "GCC will finally get precompiled header support which should help with faster compile times. GCC will also be fitted with a new recursive descent parser that fixes more than 100 bugs in GCC. I'm not sure how they decomposed C++ into a context free grammar so that it could be parsed using recursive descent."

context free grammar
