Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Like Mark, I have noticed that there are enough ignored VS warnings now to not think we need more.
Every time socketmodule is recompiled, for instance, I see all the scary deprecation warnings. These are Windows-specific. Should the code be changed or should the warnings be silenced with _WINSOCK_DEPRECATED_NO_WARNINGS, as suggested? Other warnings appear to come from code compiled on all systems. I presume such code is usually developed on Linux. Is such code compiling warning free on gcc? Are there conflicting demands and opinions from gcc and vs? I am a little confused on the actual policy for compiling on Windows. I believe Victor Stinner has done some patches to stop them, but... (Steve)> Doing the work to clean up the warnings really has to come second, ultimately. Second to what? Should I just close my eyes when running build.bat? ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue25847> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
