I just tried to build remctl and lbcd with CC="gcc -pedantic-errors", and both failed due to them not being pure C89 (some errors are at the bottom of this email). I get the point that a --disable-compiler-mode-setting flag to configure would be useful for such "use the strictest C89 mode in the compiler" compiles. Are there any other use cases or problems I miss? > Russ Allbery (rra@xxxxxxxxxxxx) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> cu Adrian <-- snip --> server/remctld.c:53:1: error: string length ‘610’ is greater than the length ‘509’ ISO C90 compilers are required to support [-Woverlength-strings] protocol.h:21:34: error: comma at end of enumerator list [-pedantic] protocol.h:30:34: error: comma at end of enumerator list [-pedantic] ./check_reply.c:28:10: error: initializer element is not computable at load time ./http.c:35:12: error: initializer element is not computable at load time ./monlist.c:86:10: error: initializer element is not computable at load time _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
