Subject: Re: cygwin g++ strictness
I some projects I'm involved with there's quite a bit of the following:
[...]
int.c:6: warning: int format, int32_t arg (arg 2)
I must confess, this has been a source of irritation for me too but at least
it doesn't stop the build. It does however bring us back to the fundamental
question - when programming like this:-
int32_t i = 32;
printf("%d", i);
is it reasonable for a programmer to assume that a type declared as int32_t
will be compatible with "%d" when building for a 32-bit platform? I'd be
surprised if there's a programmer amongst us who can honestly say he
wouldn't have made that assumption.
