That's limited. A new -W flag could catch not only this, but also other problems like naked void* -> FOO* conversions. E.g. IIRC, the -Wtraditional flag eventually caught over a dozen different problems. Over time this new warning flag for c/c++ intersection could be similarly refined. --Kaveh -- Kaveh R.
