Force the > cast to size_t to avoid this problem Nothing wrong with your libvirt patch, but I can't help wonder if this is a bug in the gnulib replacement headers, where mingw lacks ssize_t but gnulib defines it to the wrong type in comparison to size_t (that is, since mingw64 has sizeof(size_t)==4, it is not obvious whether size_t is 'unsigned long' or 'unsigned int', and if gnulib picked 'int' for ssize_t but size_t is 'unsigned long', that would explain the compiler warnings. Gnulib may need to be tweaked to help work around this mingw situation. -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
