Hi Manu,
just saw your patch for PR 12242 and have a comment: I believe the warning
message would be much better if it said *why* the result is unspecified (if the
expression being cast is a bit more complicated then it may not be immediately
clear to the casual observer that the reason is that the value is out of range;
one could also think that for whatever reason conversions between enums are
unspecified -- which of course isn't the true reason).
So I think a better wording would be
+ warning (OPT_Wconversion,
+ "the result of %<static_cast<%T>(%E)%> is unspecified because
the "
+ "value is out of range for type %T",
+ type, expr, type);
Best
Wolfgang
