I know of pre-existing code-bases where a type-cast to type:
void (*) (void);
.. is already used as a generic function pointer: libffi and
libgo, I would not want to break these.
Actually when I have a type:
X (*) (...);
I would like to make sure that the warning checks that
only functions returning X are assigned.
and for X (*) (Y, ....);
I would like to check that anything returning X with
first argument of type Y is assigned.
There are code bases where such a scheme is used.
For instance one that I myself maintain: the OPC/UA AnsiC Stack,
where I have this type definition:
typedef OpcUa_StatusCode (OpcUa_PfnInvokeService)(OpcUa_Endpoint
hEndpoint, ...);
And this plays well together with this warning, because only
functions are assigned that match up to the ...);
Afterwards this pointer is cast back to the original signature,
so everything is perfectly fine.
Regarding the cast from pointer to member to function, I see also a
warning without -Wpedantic:
Warnung: converting from »void (S::*)(int*)« to »void (*)(int*)«
[-Wpmf-conversions]
F *pf = (F*)&S::foo;
^~~
And this one is even default-enabled, so I think that should be
more than sufficient.
I also changed the heuristic, so that your example with the enum should
now work. I did not add it to the test case, because it would
break with -fshort-enums :(
Attached I have an updated patch that extends this warning to the
pointer-to-member function cast, and relaxes the heuristic on the
benign integral type differences a bit further.
Is it OK for trunk after bootstrap and reg-testing?
Thanks
Bernd.
