Re: [Gomp-discuss] Somethings to think about ....

[Lars Segerlund]

 I think this part is the most interesting, this seems like a 'REALLY' 
good idea !

 I do also think that GENERIC needs a lift :-) as for arrays and such.

 But I don't want to say too much since I have not fully grasped 
GENERIC, GIMPLE and so on ...

 In the discussion on the gcc mailing list a while ago someone 
suggested that the tree structures should be restructured in a way as to 
prevent duplication of information when lowering, ( thus lowering would 
mainly consist of adding nodes to the tree and perhaps some infor 
mation), and this would give a representation which could keep the 
higher level constructs all the way to the RTL ( since the RTL could be 
attached to the tree ). I see this as the easthetically nice solution 
since it would basicly enable you to do anythning ! However feel free to 
disregard this last paragraph since it's just me shooting my opinion off 
:-).
