Bug ID: 61416
Summary: incorrect struct tag in diagnostic
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: tromey at gcc dot gnu.org
Consider this source:
struct ptid
{
int x;
};
typedef struct ptid ptid_t;
int whatever (void *arg)
{
ptid_t *r = arg;
return r->x;
}
Compile it with -Wc++-compat:
barimba. gcc --syntax-only -Wc++-compat /tmp/r.c
/tmp/r.c: In function ‘whatever’:
/tmp/r.c:10:15: warning: request for implicit conversion from ‘void *’ to
‘struct ptid_t *’ not permitted in C++ [-Wc++-compat]
ptid_t *r = arg;
^
Note that the error mentions "struct ptid_t". However, that is
not a valid name for the type.
