-------------------------------------
Summary: Review results of compile with -Wstrict-overflow
Key: XERCESC-2105
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-2105
Project: Xerces-C++
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Scott Cantor
Assignee: Scott Cantor
Fix For: 3.2.0
Attachments: xerces-build.txt
The code base has had a number of pointer/length overflow bugs, so I thought it
would be a good idea to do a gcc build with -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-overflow=5 to
flag any cases where we're doing pointer math on potentially huge offset values
that might overflow. This can defeat boundary checking because of compiler
optimizations.
Attaching a build on RH7 with the libtool commands altered to output the
warnings for review.
