Summary

0002370: Expose ACSL annotations through host language pragmas

Description

Instead of using comments, that are non-specific constructs and may be mixed with non-ACSL comments from a parser or renderer point of view, would it be possible to use the C standard pragma construct?

Instead of e.g.

  /*@ requires R: \valid(ptr); @*/

this would give either (pragma directive):

  #pragma ACSL requires R: \valid(ptr);

or (pragma operator):

  _Pragma("ACSL requires R: \valid(ptr);")

This would help specify ACSL annotations in a specific language construct and as such expose them properly to outside programs (IDE, editors, documentation generators, etc.)

This could of course co-exist along with the current comment form.
