[PATCH] D146764: [clang] Make predefined expressions string literals under -fms-extensions

[Arthur Eubanks via Phabricator via cfe-commits]

aeubanks added inline comments.


================
Comment at: clang/lib/Sema/SemaExpr.cpp:3586-3591
+  // MSVC treats all predefined expressions as string literals rather than char
+  // arrays.
+  if (LangOpts.MicrosoftExt)
+    return SL;
+
   return PredefinedExpr::Create(Context, Loc, ResTy, IK, SL);

Otherwise, we lose AST fidelity and things like the `predefinedExpr()` AST matcher don't work (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/clang/include/clang/ASTMatchers/ASTMatchers.h#L2697), and `-ast-print` will print the wrong thing (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/clang/lib/AST/StmtPrinter.cpp#L1248).
how would you structure this? an almost identical `PredefinedExpr` class that also subclasses `StringLiteral`? or special case all the places that check for `StringLiteral` to also check for `PredefinedExpr` (the case I was mostly looking at was initializing a char array with predefined expressions but presumably there are more places that matter)
