@itemx default
The type machinery needs to be told which field of a @code{union} is
currently active. This is done by giving each field a constant @code{tag}
value, and then specifying a discriminator using @code{desc}. For example,
currently active. This is done by giving each field a constant
@code{tag} value, and then specifying a discriminator using @code{desc}.
The value of the expression given by @code{desc} is compared against
each @code{tag} value, each of which should be different. If no
@code{tag} is matched, the field marked with @code{default} is used if
there is one, otherwise no field in the union will be marked.
In the @code{desc} option, the ``current structure'' is the union that
it discriminates. Use @code{%1} to mean the structure containing it.
(There are no escapes available to the @code{tag} option, since it's
supposed to be a constant.)
For example,
@smallexample
struct tree_binding GTY(())

In the @code{desc} option, the ``current structure'' is the union that
it discriminates. Use @code{%1} to mean the structure containing it.
(There are no escapes available to the @code{tag} option, since it's

Each @code{tag} should be different. If no @code{tag} is matched,
the field marked with @code{default} is used if there is one, otherwise
no field in the union will be marked.
In this example, the value of BINDING_HAS_LEVEL_P when applied to a
@code{struct tree_binding *} is presumed to be 0 or 1. If 1, the type
mechanism will treat the field @code{level} as being present and if 0,
will treat the field @code{scope} as being present.
