As is -Wno-all, of course. > (if they don't use it, they don't want it). That isn't necessarily the case. In my experience, there seem to be a lot of developers who simply don't think much about the issue to the point of adding warning options, but who are not really averse to _heeding_ warnings that the compiler emits by default. It's kind of hard to say where the right balance lies given gcc's disparate user community, but ... one way to find out is try... :] For instance, how about adding -Wall to the default options now, and then re-evaluate the issue based on any complaints that come in from people using snapshots? That's hardly a perfect method, as the sort of people who run compiler snapshots are maybe not entirely representative, but at least it's better data than one gets by simply sitting around and pontificating... -Miles -- Ocean, n.
