Hi all,
We cast int to (void*) -> (example in
main/sw/source/ui/fldui/changedb.cxx line 234)
In general this sounds like not a sane idea to me, see discussions [1]
[2] [3]. The solution that the c++ community found is the use of
intptr_t, which is defined in C99.
In general I would like to get rid of these casts. However as a quick
fix it would make sense to use intptr_t as a first measure.
Is there any reason that would block the move to C99? I guess C99 should
be supported by all the compilers we require . (c11 is currently not
available on all Plattforms we support.)
