#2024 — ANN: gcc-python-plugin 0.15

gcc-python-plugin is a plugin for GCC 4.6 onwards which embeds the
CPython interpreter within GCC, allowing you to write new compiler
warnings in Python, generate code visualizations, etc.

It ships with "gcc-with-cpychecker", which implements static analysis
passes for GCC aimed at finding bugs in CPython extensions.  In
particular, it can automatically detect reference-counting errors:

This release adds support for GCC 6.

Additionally, this release contains the following improvements
contributed by Tom Tromey (thanks Tom):

- document gcc.PLUGIN_FINISH_TYPE
- document gcc.EnumeralType; add ‘values’ attribute
- add unqualified_equivalent to gcc.Type subclasses
- preserve qualifiers when adding more qualifiers
- fix include for gcc 4.9.2
- handle variadic function types

Tarball releases are available at:
  https://fedorahosted.org/releases/g/c/gcc-python-plugin/

Prebuilt-documentation can be seen at:

The project's homepage is:

The plugin and checker are Free Software, licensed under the GPLv3 or
later.

Enjoy!
