# This is a GCC plugin that computes some exception-handling data for
# gdb.  This data can then be summarized and checked by the
# exsummary.py script.

# To use:
# * First, install the GCC Python plugin.  See
#   https://fedorahosted.org/gcc-python-plugin/
# * export PYTHON_PLUGIN=/full/path/to/plugin/directory
#   This should be the directory holding "python.so".
# * cd build/gdb; make mostlyclean
# * make CC=.../gcc-with-excheck
#   This will write a number of .py files in the build directory.
# * python .../exsummary.py
#   This will show the violations.
