2:32p	Malcolm: Usability improvements in GCC 9 David Malcolm writes about improved diagnostics and more in the GCC 9 release. "Speaking of annotations, this example shows another new GCC 9 feature: diagnostics can label regions of the source code to show pertinent information. Here, what’s most important are the types of the left-hand and right-hand sides of the '+' operator, so GCC highlights them inline. Notice how the diagnostic also uses color to distinguish the two operands from each other and the operator." (Comment on this)
