Bug ID: 77490
Summary: bit-not (~) on boolean should be warned about
Product: gcc
Version: 7.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: bernd.edlinger at hotmail dot de
Target Milestone: ---
see: https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-09/msg00202.html
The problem is that ~ on bool maps [0:1] to [-1:-2]
and thus the result is no longer boolean. But probably the assignment
normalizes the result again: b = ~b; has the effect of setting b = 1.
this affects c and c++.
