[cfe-commits] [patch] Allow vector<id<protocol>> in objc++11

Hi,

C++11 allowed writing "vector<vector<int>>" without a space between ">" and
">".

Objective-C++11 doesn't seem to allow "vector<id<protocol>>" though, and
the diagnostic message clang emits for it even gets worse with -std=c++11
(PR14603).

The attached patch allows vector<id<protocol>> (only in c++11 mode) by
pulling the parsing code for >> into its own function and calling it from
the objc protocol parsing code. In C++98-mode, this also improves the
produced diagnostic. I'm aware this is a language change, but it's more
permissive so it shouldn't break existing code, and the change feels
consistent with c++11 to me.

If you think the language change part is not desirable, I'd want to land
the patch but make the new function not suppress the '>>' diagnostic when
called from the protocol parser, for the improved diagnostic.

Thanks,
Nico
