Hi and thanks for the hint.
I've determined that the following function defined in gcc/gcc.cc (in
my understanding the source code related to g++)
*/* Determine what the exit code of the driver should be. */*
*intdriver::get_exit_code () const { ... }*
is responsible for the return value of g++.
The "warningcount" macro evaluates from the diagnostic context the
number of warnings generated in the compilation.
The problem is that the warningcount macro evaluates correctly in
cc1plus but always evaluates to 0 in g++, so it's not
possible to solve the problem modifying only this function.
So I think that the information about the warning count is lost from
the diagnostic context of cc1plus
and the diagnostic context available to g++.
Given that g++ and cc1plus are different applications, I assume that
cc1plus passes the diagnostic context back to g++ via some temporary
file.
And maybe the point could be to make cc1plus update also the warning
count information in this file, so that it will be available to g++.
Am I on the right track? If so, any hint on where cc1plus stores the
diagnostic context in this temporary file for g++?
Thanks,
Luca

Try to find out where -Werror gets handled. This will lead you to the
correct places.
