Im using Xcode 3.0 and building a Foundation Tool (debug, PPC). The

There is a line of my code that is giving me a warning I cant' douse:
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
. . .
NSSocketPort *socketPort=[[NSSocketPort alloc] initWithTCPPort:1234];
. . .
warning: passing argument 1 of 'initWithTCPPort:' with different
width due to prototype
I checked the NSPort header file for the NSSocketPort method
prototype, /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/
Foundation.framework/Versions/C/Headers/NSPort.h:
- (id)initWithTCPPort:(unsigned short)port;
What am I doing wrong?
Nothing, really, unless you count using -Wconversion in the first
place. -Wconversion isn't very useful these days -- it's mostly
intended for use when you're working with pre-ANSI C without function
prototypes. Quoting from gcc(1), -Wconversion warns "if a prototype
causes a type conversion that is different from what would happen to
the same argument in the absence of a prototype." Since unprototyped
integral arguments are passed as "int", a parameter that's explicitly
declared as any other integral type, such as "unsigned short", will
provoke this warning. Notice that it's how the *prototype* is
declared, not how you're calling the function, that causes the
warning, so there's nothing you can do to make it go away aside from
turning off -Wconversion.
