Bug ID: 59753
Summary: Missing -Woverflow warning with signed constant
conversion between T_MAX+1 and UT_MAX
Product: gcc
Version: 4.9.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: vincent-gcc at vinc17 dot net
When writing "int d = some_signed_constant;", one expects a -Woverflow warning
if some_signed_constant > INT_MAX, but one actually gets a warning only if
some_signed_constant > UINT_MAX. Similarly for other types, such as char and
short.
For instance, with the following program, one expects 6 warnings, but one only
gets 2.
#include <stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
short a = 32768;
short b = 65535;
short c = 65536;
int d = 2147483648;
int e = 4294967295;
int f = 4294967296;
printf ("%d %d %d %d %d %d\n", a, b, c, d, e, f);
return 0;
}
$ gcc-snapshot tst.c -o tst
tst.c: In function 'main':
tst.c:6:3: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]
short c = 65536;
^
tst.c:9:3: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]
int f = 4294967296;
^
This occurs with:
gcc (Debian 20131201-1) 4.9.0 20131201 (experimental) [trunk revision 205573]
and older versions (4.7 and 4.8 at least).
