Re: [PATCH] inet_ntop.c: Work around GCC 4.6's detection of uninitialized variables

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



GCC 4.6 claims that

    error: 'best.len' may be used uninitialized in this function

so silence that warning which is treated as an error by also initializing
the "len" members of the struct.
