Make sure you include an e-mail address, so we - can inform you when the status of your report changes. - - Another way is to use the gccbug program that is automatically - installed with current versions of GCC, which submits the bug report - by e-mail. - - Both techniques use the same GNATS bug database. - -Filling out a report - - The bug report form provides a number of fields; you'll need to - fill-out most of those (as indicated below) to provide a complete - report. The fields have the following purpose: - - Originator - Your name. - - Organization - Your organization. You can leave this field blank. - - Confidential - This field is unused and set to 'no'. All bug reports, - including sample code, are publicly accessible. - - Synopsis - A one-line description of the problem; something like "GCC 2.95 - does not foo", "objc crashes when doing bar". - - Severity - Can be one of - - critical - GCC is completely not operational; no work-around known. - - serious - GCC is not working properly; a work-around is possible. - - non-critical - Report indicates minor problem. - - Priority - Can be one of - - high - A solution is necessary as soon as possible. This is - reserved to GCC maintainers. - - medium - The problem should be solved in the next release. - - low - The problem should be solved in a future release. - - Category - This indicates the GCC subproject which is affected by the - problem. Currently, it can be one of - - ada - A problem with the Ada compiler, libraries or tools. - - bootstrap - GCC fails to bootstrap. This should be filed only if a - bootstrap failure prevails for an extended period of time - (at least one week) on any platform (and possibly - not-so-common conditions like a read-only srcdir), or - non-mainstream platforms. - - c++ - A problem with the C++ compiler. - - c - A problem with the C compiler. - - debug - A problem with generating debugging information. - - fortran - A problem with the Fortran compiler. - - java - A problem with the Java compiler. - - libf2c - A problem in the Fortran runtime library. - - libgcj - A problem in the Java runtime library. - - libobjc - A problem in the Objective C runtime library. - - libstdc++ - A problem in the Standard C++ runtime library. - - middle-end - A problem in the internal compiler passes. - - objc - A problem with the Objective C compiler. - - optimization - A problem only occurring under optimization. - - preprocessor - A problem with the C preprocessor. - - target - The problem depends on the specific target architecture. - - web - There is an error or omission on the Web pages. - - other - The problem is in none of these categories. - - Class - A classification of the problem; one of - - doc-bug - The documentation is incorrect. - - accepts-illegal - GCC fails to reject erroneous code. - - rejects-legal - GCC gives an error message for correct code. - - wrong-code - The machine code generated by GCC is incorrect. - - ice-on-legal-code - GCC gives an Internal Compiler Error (ICE) for correct - code. - - ice-on-illegal-code - GCC gives an ICE instead of reporting an error. - - pessimizes-code - GCC misses an important optimization opportunity. - - sw-bug - Software bug of some other class than above. - - change-request - A feature in GCC is missing. - - support - I need help with GCC. - - Release - GCC version, as obtained from 'gcc -v' (one line). - - Environment - Information about your operating system version, hardware - architecture, and environment settings that affect GCC. - - Description - Precise description of the problem. You should put the error - messages printed by GCC here; source code should go into the - next section. - - How-To-Repeat - Please put the complete source code to reproduce the problem - here. The gccbug script currently does not support file - attachments. Instead, if you have multiple files, include them - uuencoded (compressing them before if they are large). If you - use gnatsweb, you can use the file attachments button instead. - - Fix - How to correct or work around the problem, if known (multiple - lines). - -References - - 1. http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html - 2. http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=gcc&user=guest&password=guest&cmd=login |
