Re: [Bug-apl] Bogus compiler warnings

[Alexey Veretennikov]

Hi,

I'll attach some examples later today's evening, but from top of my head for example PrintBuffer.cc line 150.
const ShapeItem cols = value.get_last_shape_item();

As I told, these warnings are bogus since there is no branching etc in these cases at least from what I see.

And older GCC is known to have these redundant/bogus warnings.

Hi,

I'm trying to compile GNU APL with GCC 3.4.6 armv5. There are couple of bogus compiler warnings, mainly about variable might be uninitialized.

Sometimes the situations are like this:

SomeObject * ptr = new SomeObject(arg);

- here compiler complains (sometimes) what ptr might be used uninitialized.

I've fixed it by separating variable declaration and initialization with the real value, like this:

In the beginning of the function:

Can you show the fill error message, including the file/line? I'm wondering because I cannot see how ptr could ever be used uninitialised in that example. There must be more to it that you didn't include.
