Hi,

Included remarks inline....

Thanx,
Jaap

If you try to compile packet-user_encap.c do you get the same error

Yes, same warning. Doesn't stop the build since it's not a 'clean' dissector.

and epan/dfilter/dfilter-macro.c  what happens with that?

No warnings here. Maybe because of the big struct.

can you try
	void** sm = &(smi_modules);
and then passing sm to uat_new()

This way it gives "initialization from incompatible pointer type". Adding the (void **) typecast moves the problem to the assignment.

or cast it to (void*) instead of (void**)

Hmm tries that before, but aborted during startup due to an assert
in uat_new. It asserts data_ptr != NULL;
The current revision 22697 works though. :)

or passing
&((void*)smi_modules)

Nhaa, that gives "invalid lvalue in unary '&'".


So I've checked in the (void *) variant. Now we'll have to see if this thing flies.

Thanx,
Jaap

I got it... Optimizer is smart enough to reduce struct smi_module_t {
char* name; } into char* but not insightfull enought to knwo it did it
itself.

if you change (in line 179)

typedef struct smi_module_t {
      char* name;
} smi_module_t;

to

typedef struct smi_module_t {
         void* dummy;
      char* name;
} smi_module_t;


Is the warning gone?
