<dd>
<p>This is a generic method for doing formatted output. It takes an
additional argument <code>dump_kind</code> which signifies the type of
dump. This method outputs information only when the dumps are enabled
for this particular <code>dump_kind</code>. Note that the caller doesn&rsquo;t
need to know if the particular dump is enabled or not, or even the
file name. The caller only needs to decide which dump output
information is relevant, and under what conditions. This determines
the associated flags.
</p>
<p>Consider the following example from <samp>loop-unroll.c</samp> where an
informative message about a loop (along with its location) is printed
when any of the following flags is enabled
</p><ul class="no-bullet">
<li>- optimization messages
</li><li>- RTL dumps
</li><li>- detailed dumps
</li></ul>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">int report_flags = MSG_OPTIMIZED_LOCATIONS | TDF_RTL | TDF_DETAILS;
dump_printf_loc (report_flags, locus,
&quot;loop turned into non-loop; it never loops.\n&quot;);
</pre></div>
</dd>
<dt><code>dump_basic_block</code>
<a name="index-dump_005fbasic_005fblock"></a>
</dt>
<dd><p>Output basic block.
</p></dd>
<dt><code>dump_generic_expr</code>
<a name="index-dump_005fgeneric_005fexpr"></a>
</dt>
<dd><p>Output generic expression.
</p></dd>
<dt><code>dump_gimple_stmt</code>
<a name="index-dump_005fgimple_005fstmt"></a>
</dt>
<dd><p>Output gimple statement.
</p>
<p>Note that the above methods also have variants prefixed with
<code>_loc</code>, such as <code>dump_printf_loc</code>, which are similar except
they also output the source location information.
