Product: gcc Version: 5.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: dcb314 at hotmail dot com Given C++ source code extern void g(int); void f(int p1) { int i; if (p1 >= 0) i = 0.01; else i = -0.02; g(i); } trunk 20141001 says nothing, even with provocation: $ ~/gcc/results/bin/g++ -c -O2 -Wall -Wextra oct1a.cc $ Here is clang being a bit more helpful: $ clang++ -c -O2 -Wall -Wextra oct1a.cc oct1a.cc:9:7: warning: implicit conversion from 'double' to 'int' changes value from 0.01 to 0 [-Wliteral-conversion] i = 0.01; ~ ^~~~ oct1a.cc:11:8: warning: implicit conversion from 'double' to 'int' changes value from 0.02 to 0 [-Wliteral-conversion] i = -0.02; ~ ^~~~ 2 warnings generated. $ There are half a dozen examples of this in Fedora's current Linux source code.
