             Bug #: 13596
           Summary: Recover better from missing closing braces
           Product: clang
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: Frontend
        AssignedTo: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: nicolasweber at gmx.de
                CC: llvmbugs at cs.uiuc.edu
    Classification: Unclassified


Nicos-MacBook-Pro:src thakis$ cat test.cc
bool f(bool b) {
  if (b) {
    ;
}

void g(int i, int j) {
}
Nicos-MacBook-Pro:src thakis$ third_party/llvm-build/Release+Asserts/bin/clang
-c test.cc
test.cc:6:21: error: expected ';' at end of declaration
void g(int i, int j) {
                    ^
                    ;
test.cc:7:2: error: expected '}'
}
 ^
test.cc:1:16: note: to match this '{'
bool f(bool b) {
               ^
2 errors generated.


If clang sees a "{" after a function declaration, chances are that before that
decl a closing brace is missing. clang should error on that and then proceed if
it was there.

(bug 7555 is somewhat related)
