Description dje 2011-10-31 19:42:49 UTC 
If it's missing on purpose, should add a comment explaining why.
Comment 1 Tom Tromey 2011-11-10 19:45:27 UTC 
Also char, and, for C++, bool.

    gdb: Extend the comments in c-exp.y
    
    In an attempt to fix PR gdb/13368 this commit adds some comments to
    c-exp.y which hopefully makes the type parsing code a little clearer.
    There are no code changes here, so there should be no user visible
    changes after this commit.
    
    gdb/ChangeLog:
    
    	PR gdb/13368
    	* c-exp.y (typebase): Extend the comment.
    	(ident_tokens): Likewise.
Comment 3 Tom Tromey 2020-03-07 14:51:18 UTC 
I think the comment change adequately explained this.
