But casts are a big > code smell and should be avoided if there is a reasonable alternative. enums are so much better for debugging and other instrumentation stuff. The only requirement for the enum types is that they're big enough to express all the members and we can use whatever printf format letter which matches the type in use. The problem here is that the compiler behavior is different depending on the compiler version, which kinda sucks. I suppose the most reasonable thing to do here is just splitting them into separate enum definitions. Does anyone know how this behavior change came to be? Do we know whether clang is gonna be changed the same way? Thanks. -- tejun
