Title: How to turn off GCC "incompatible pointer" warnings
Post by: Minuous on November 19, 2014, 06:04:04 PM

I'm getting a lot of these warnings when using GCC under OS4:

assignment from incompatible pointer type
passing argument of '' from incompatible pointer type

and want to know what GCC command line option will suppress them. Thanks.

That's a bad approach. You should rather fix the source code.

Or they should fix their compiler so it doesn't emit warnings for harmless scenarios; that's more the role of a lint tool. Speaking of which, what is the best Lint for OS4?
