There is currently no GCC option that will turn off discarded qualifiers warnings, which typically arise from const/non-const mismatches. These warnings look like this:
warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type warning: passing argument 1 of foo discards qualifiers from pointer target type This is a request for an option to suppress these warnings. A typical C programmer should see these warnings so that they can fix them. But in tools that automatically generate C code it may sometimes be difficult to avoid large numbers of warnings like this, and so as a practical matter it may be helpful to be able to suppress them. (One such tool is the Vala compiler; see http://live.gnome.org/Vala). -- Summary: request: option to suppress discarded qualifiers warnings Product: gcc Version: 4.3.3 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P3 Component: c AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: adam at yorba dot org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41215
