Hi List!
I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all the developers involved in
the "virtual warning fix" party of recent days!
:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
:-) :-) :-)
I'm very pleased to notice that my "call for a warning free" Wireshark
was heard and was being answered ;-)
The buildbot is now "all green" again, even with the "treat warning as
error" setting in the buildbot makefiles.
To quote myself:
While I would take a look on the Win32 warnings, are the unix/linux
developers willing to spend some time to remove warnings that don't
appear on Win32 (or would this be a "Win32 only" show)?
I'm pleased to notice that this wasn't a "Win32 only" show!
As I did expect, some of the warnings have been fixed in a pragmatical
way, e.g. disabled some warnings for the generated files by using a
#pragma warning. However, this is pretty much ok for me and much better
than what we had before. For most code files, a warning will emit an
error now, making it much more obvious to see :-)
So I guess we now have a much better base to prevent new warnings from
leak into the sources.
Our mission continues ...
Regards, ULFL
P.S: I've added a small section to the README.developer file saying that
code should be warning free.
P.P.S: Please excuse me already now for code with gcc warnings, as I'll
usually only see the MSVC ones ...
