Bug ID: 107764
Summary: -Wreturn-type and -Wuninitialized documentation could
link to a FAQ about enum and switches
Product: gcc
Version: 13.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: documentation
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
I have noticed GCC gets bug reports about false positive with -Wreturn-type or
-Wuninitialized and enums in a switch statement. WE should have a FAQ about
enums dealing with how they work; especially with switch statements and link to
that part of the document from those two warnings.
And also the FAQ should talk about the interaction with -fstrict-enum option
for C++.

There are definitely some more bug reports that I didn't link in the see also.
