Yes, that is true. But there is no way to turn off or turn into an error the warning that is output in _this_particular_case_, because there's no flag in GCC's code to do so. gcc/toplev.c, function check_global_declaration_1, around line 470: && (warn_unused_function || TREE_SYMBOL_REFERENCED (DECL_ASSEMBLER_NAME (decl)))) { if (TREE_SYMBOL_REFERENCED (DECL_ASSEMBLER_NAME (decl))) pedwarn (input_location, 0, "%q+F used but never defined", decl); This particular warning can be turned into an error by specifying -pedantic-errors Cheers, Oleg
