------- Comment #6 from lopezibanez at gmail dot com 2006-09-16 01:08 ------- In which way gcc reports the problem correctly? What gcc currently reports is that if the prototype were missing the value would be passed as a signed int. It is not warning you about the conversion, it warns you about the effect of having a prototype.
If you mean that gcc (and g++) should warn that a signed variable is passed to a function that expects an unsigned variable, then when using the -Wcoercion flag (provided by the Wcoercion project [*]), both cc1 and cc1plus report: pr26167.cpp:10: warning: coercion to 'unsigned int' from 'int' may alter its value [*] http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Wcoercion -- lopezibanez at gmail dot com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |lopezibanez at gmail dot com http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26167
