The plugins will allow interested developers to extend GCC in Python 2 and Python 3, without needing to deal with the C internals of GCC.

−
Example of potential uses include adding new compiler warnings based on:
 
−
 
−
* GTK's reference-counting semantics
 
−
* locking in the Linux kernel
 
−
* signal-safety in APIs.
 
−
* malloc/free usage (e.g. use-after-free bugs)
 
−
* array boundary checks

−
'' Interested developers should be able to use this to easily extend GCC by writing Python scripts, such as adding new warnings for a library that they work on, without needing to use C.''
