------- Comment #4 from felix-gcc at fefe dot de 2008-04-01 16:09 ------- I'm not familiar enough with how gcc works to say whether warning about precision loss that turns out important later on can be done at all.
But I think we should not reject an idea because it only handles 60% of the cases. Instead we should be happy we only have to worry about the other 40%, not about 100% from then on. I agree that signed int to size_t conversion for memcpy should also be warned about by some attribute. Could be done by the same attribute. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35592
