* params.def (PARAM_VERIFY_CANONICAL_TYPES): Remove. (PARAM_USE_CANONICAL_TYPES): New; decides whether to use canonical types or not. * params.h (VERIFY_CANONICAL_TYPES): Remove. (USE_CANONICAL_TYPES): New. * doc/invoke.texi (verify-canonical-types): Remove. (use-canonical-types): Add. 2007-07-11 Douglas Gregor <doug.gregor@gmail.com> * typeck.c (comptypes): When USE_CANONICAL_TYPES, use the canonical types; otherwise, fall back to structural type comparisons. If ENABLE_CHECKING and USE_CANONICAL_TYPES, give an internal compiler error if the canonical types are wrong. git-svn-id: svn+ssh://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk@126550 138bc75d-0d04-0410-961f-82ee72b054a4

-@item verify-canonical-types
-Whether the compiler should verify the ``canonical'' types used for
-type equality comparisons within the C++ and Objective-C++ front
-ends. Set to 1 (the default when GCC is configured with
---enable-checking) to enable verification, 0 to disable verification
-(the default when GCC is configured with --disable-checking).
+@item use-canonical-types
+Whether the compiler should use the ``canonical'' type system. By
+default, this should always be 1, which uses a more efficient internal
+mechanism for comparing types in C++ and Objective-C++. However, if
+bugs in the canonical type system are causing compilation failures,
+set this value to 0 to disable canonical types.
