What -W values in gcc correspond to which actual warnings?
- by SebastianK
Preamble: I know, disabling warnings is not a good idea. Anyway, I have a technical question about this.
Using GCC 3.3.6, I get the following warning:
choosing ... over ... because conversion sequence for the argument is better.
Now, I want to disable this warning as described in gcc warning options by providing an argument like
-Wno-theNameOfTheWarning
But I don't know the name of the warning. How can I find out the name of the option that disables this warning?
I am not able to fix the warning, because it occurs in a header of an external library that can not be changed. It is in boost serialization (rx(s, count)):
template<class Archive, class Container, class InputFunction, class R>
inline void load_collection(Archive & ar, Container &s)
{
s.clear();
// retrieve number of elements
collection_size_type count;
unsigned int item_version;
ar >> BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(count);
if(3 < ar.get_library_version())
ar >> BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(item_version);
else
item_version = 0;
R rx;
rx(s, count);
std::size_t c = count;
InputFunction ifunc;
while(c-- > 0){
ifunc(ar, s, item_version);
}
}
I have already tried #pragma GCC system_header but this had no effect. Using -isystem instead of -I also does not work.
The general question remains is: I know the text of the warning message. But I do not know the correlation to the gcc warning options.
