Our code has a configuration header file with stuff like:
const unsigned NUM_SENSORS = N;
Depending on the target we're compiling for, 'N' could be 0. In
which case, all our loops:
for(unsigned i=0; i<NUM_SENSORS; i++) { /* ... */ }
spew the warning:
warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false
I'd like to keep -W / -Wextra enabled for the other things it
provides, but this particular warning is gumming up the works.
As far as I know, there's no flag (a la -Wno-sign-compare) for this
particular warning. Correct?
Can somebody please request (or point me where I can request) a flag
be added to override this aspect of -Wextra? From some web
searching, it appearsmy usage example is a fairly common pattern
where this warning is discouraging desirable abstraction/generalization.
thanks,
