[Bug c++/43064] New: Include member name in C++ warning

[jg at jguk dot org]

I noticed the C++ warnings in the following example have incorrect line
numbers, and the member name is missing. Is it possible to improve the warning
output?



$ g++ -Wconversion -o t main.cpp
main.cpp: In constructor ‘A::A()’:
main.cpp:18: warning: converting to non-pointer type ‘int’ from NULL
main.cpp:18: warning: converting to non-pointer type ‘unsigned int’ from NULL


I think the output should be like:

main.cpp:15: In constructor ‘A::A()’:
main.cpp:18: warning: converting to m_int non-pointer type ‘int’ from NULL
main.cpp:18: warning: converting to m_unit non-pointer type ‘unsigned int’ from
NULL


sample:
======================
// g++ -Wconversion -o t main.cpp

// include to get definition of NULL
#include <string.h>

class A
{
        public:
        A();
        bool m_bool;
        int m_int;
        unsigned int m_uint;
};

A::A()
: m_bool(NULL),
m_int(NULL),
m_uint(NULL)
{
}

int main()
{       
}
================================
