<div>I'm about to make a change to invert the return value of Driver::parse() to return true on success. Currently it returns false on success.</div><div><br></div>
<div>In many other functions, we return true to indicate success and false to indicate failure. The inconsistency is confusing, and fixing it should improve code readability.</div><div><br></div></div></blockquote><div><br>
</div><div>Note that some places in LLVM use false to indicate success, not sure how widespread this is. Personally I think that { if (doSomething()) } means if doSomething succeeded, and thus agree with you. However, I think this is something that needs to be consistent across all of LLVM and should be in the coding standard.</div>
