Re: problem with Apple's customised gcc compiler
Hi Eljay
Thank you for your reply.
I did use the -w option which would explain why there is no warning
messages. But this surly must be an error not a warning.
I tried turn on -W, and also the line g++ -pedantic -Werror -Wall -W -c
bug.cpp
The compiler generated only a warning.
Should I report this to Apple?
By the way, could I use the true gcc compiler and Apple's customised
version on the same machine without conflict? How do I do this?
Thank you very much.
Tony

Hi Tony,
Both as C and C++ the code returned a warning for me.
Using Apple's GCC 3.3 20030304 Build 1495.
gcc -c bug.c
g++ -c bug.cpp

Would you retry compiling your code snippet. Since it generated a
warning for me, I'm surprised / concerned.

behave like this?
Do you have warnings suppressed? What was your command line?
>Could it be that the compiler optimised away some code and over
looked this error?
No.
>Is there any compiler options that could enforce this error checking?
g++ -pedantic -Werror -Wall -W -c bug.cpp

apple's customised version) on a mac?
Do you merely want to run your code at the Darwin level? Then yes.
HTH,
