Meeting Thursday and Status

[Jim Dehnert]

Attached is the gzipped tar file of the status pages.  PDF to follow.
Following is an updated agenda:
 
  1) The COMDAT/section index proposals I've sent out the past couple
     of days.  It's desirable to get this into the base ABI group ASAP.
     Bring a linker rep if you need to, or perhaps just have them
     review it.  (Of course, there'll be another shot in the base ABI
     group.)  See open issue B-5.
 
  2) RTTI descriptors.  See open issue A-6, and Daveed's cleaned
     up description in the ABI data layout document.  Thanks,
     Daveed, for getting this out.
 
  3) The updated vtable layout proposal from Jason.  See open issue
     B-6, and Jason's cleaned up description in the ABI data layout
     document.
 
  4) Based on (3), can we produce a clean description of a virtual
     function call?  If not, what's still missing?  See issue B-1.

  5) Same question for dynamic cast.  See issue B-8.

  6) Identify what remains to deal with C-5 and C-6 (calling
     constructors and destructors).

  7) I think we're ready to close D-5 through D-7 based on the
     exception discussions so far.  Please take a look and be
     prepared to raise any issues that concern you.

  8) If possible, let's discuss the varargs routine interface,
     as there's a possible C ABI issue there (G-5).

That should keep us occupied...
