Yes, I understand what -Wall is supposed to mean.
I don’t have a problem with -Wall warning about ‘if (foo = 3)’ when I probably
intended ‘if (foo == 3)’ and I could have written ‘if ((foo = 3))’ if that’s
what I really wanted.
I don’t have a problem with -Wall warning about ‘printf("hello", "world")’ when
I probably intended ‘printf("hello %s", "world")’ and I could have written
‘printf("hello")’ if that’s what I really wanted.
But ‘custom_printf_like_function(foo, "")’ is something different. What do you
think that line indicates I intended? What coding style do you think -Wall is
expecting if I really meant the empty string?
