Thanks James/Arnaldo, I was trying to be aggressive in having more
flags, but it seems too aggressive. We should probably bring back the
logic to make this flag only added if it is supported:
CC_HASNT_MISLEADING_INDENTATION := $(shell echo "int main(void) {
return 0 }" | $(CC) -Werror -Wno-misleading-indentation -o /dev/null
-xc - 2>&1 | grep -q -- -Wno-misleading-indentation ; echo $$?)
ifeq ($(CC_HASNT_MISLEADING_INDENTATION), 1)
flex_flags += -Wno-misleading-indentation
endif
Arnaldo, is the misleading indentation in the bison generated code or
something copy-pasted from the parse-events.l ? If the latter we may
be able to fix the .l file to keep the warning.
Thanks,
Ian
