Lucky man, i once worked in a project where we had 70000 warnings after we decided to remove the disable warnings which were scattered all over the place. some used #pragma disable warning, Other used vcproj settings. Some even did it in headers so the disabling spread everywhere. We then introduced a disable_warnings.h , which we defined to be the only place to disable warnings. so the warning disabling could be easily tracked. ( W4 has some silly warnings as it is a kind of info level, but we were forced to use it, so disabling is needed) About 5 years later we were down to 2000 warnings in our old modules, for new modules we set warnings as error. We had some issues with removing warnings but introducing bugs , so we needed to be careful and resources are sacred and ease dates are near and so on. Any new project i start in our company , first thing is to set warnings as error. Due to using make now thats actually a easy thing to do.
