5096d490 (convert trivial sprintf / strcpy calls to xsnprintf) converted two sprintf calls. Now GCC warns that "format '%u' expects argument of type 'unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'long unsigned int'". Instead of changing the format string, use a variable of type unsigned in place of the typedef-ed type DWORD, which hides that it is actually an unsigned long. There is no correctness issue with the old code because unsigned long and unsigned are always of the same size on Windows, even in 64-bit builds. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@xxxxxxxx> --- I do not know why there are no warnings with the old code. Apparently, the system provided sprintf declaration does not have format-printf annotation. compat/mingw.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/compat/mingw.c b/compat/mingw.c index a168800..90bdb1e 100644 --- a/compat/mingw.c +++ b/compat/mingw.c @@ -2131,7 +2131,7 @@ void mingw_startup() int uname(struct utsname *buf) { - DWORD v = GetVersion(); + unsigned v = (unsigned)GetVersion(); memset(buf, 0, sizeof(*buf)); xsnprintf(buf->sysname, sizeof(buf->sysname), "Windows"); xsnprintf(buf->release, sizeof(buf->release), -- 2.3.2.245.gb5bf9d3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
