- Subject: Cast void * to u_int
Good morning!
I have a line of code as follows (excuse erroneous capitulation, it's my
mailer)
XtPointer client_data; // which is really void *
u_int days = reinterpret_cast<u_int>(client_data);
When I compile with gcc-4.1.2 I get:
error: cast from 'void*' to 'u_int' looses precision
This is the first time I've tried to rebuild this program with gcc-4, it was
previously build with gcc-2.95.2 (really old code but it works and is
simple).
What am I missing here???
Thanks!
