How 'bout using "gcc -w" for compilation. It SILENCES the complaint. (I'm using gcc version 2.95.3-5.)

Hi The useless compiler warning is this: warning: decimal constant is so large that it is unsigned I KNOW that it's unsigned, and it's supposed to be. It's the right hand side of an initialization like this: unsigned int x = 4294967294; I'd just ignore it as a minor annoyance, but my boss insists that I find a way to silence it (he doesn't know C himself). Thank you very much in advance. Please reply to my email as I'm not subscribed to the list... P.S. I already tried typecasting the large constant as an unsigned int, as if to tell the compiler that I was well aware it was too large to be signed, but that didn't help.
