Subject: [PATCH] xemit.c: fix a [-Wchar-subscripts] compiler warning
Date: Thu, 26 May 2016 00:06:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <57462FF3.4010705@ramsayjones.plus.com> (raw)
While compiling on cygwin (x86_64), gcc complains thus:
CC xdiff/xemit.o
xdiff/xemit.c: In function ‘is_empty_rec’:
xdiff/xemit.c:163:2: warning: array subscript has type ‘char’ [-Wchar-subscripts]
while (len > 0 && isspace(*rec)) {
^
A comment in the <ctype.h> header reads, in part, like so:
These macros are intentionally written in a manner that will trigger
a gcc -Wall warning if the user mistakenly passes a 'char' instead
of an int containing an 'unsigned char'.
In order to suppress the warning, cast the 'char *' pointer 'rec' to an
'unsigned char *' pointer, prior to passing the dereferenced pointer to
the isspace() macro.

Hi René,
If you need to re-roll your 'rs/xdiff-hunk-with-func-line' branch, could
you please squash this (or something like it) into the relevant patch.
[A comment in the linux <ctype.h> header, says that the ctype-info tables ...
point into arrays of 384, so they can be indexed by any `unsigned
char' value [0,255]; by EOF (-1); or by any `signed char' value
[-128,-1).
So, this is not a problem on linux.]
Thanks!
ATB,
Ramsay Jones
