Translation implementation (Using the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC)) (original) (raw)

4.1 Translation

• How a diagnostic is identified (C90 3.7, C99 and C11 3.10, C90, C99 and C11 5.1.1.3).
  Diagnostics consist of all the output sent to stderr by GCC.
• Whether each nonempty sequence of white-space characters other than new-line is retained or replaced by one space character in translation phase 3 (C90, C99 and C11 5.1.1.2).
  See Implementation-defined behavior in The C Preprocessor.
