In particular, we (and especially people who don't have the heterogeneous Linux within Google) build with a variety of gcc versions which have different ideas of what a warning is; it's actually been difficult to keep even the Chrome code warning clean on more finicky versions (special thanks to some casual contributors for patches for that). For example, the Ubuntu autobuilders frequently break for this reason. (In WebKit's case, I suspect Apple's gcc will only continue to diverge from gcc trunk due to GPLv3 issues, so most of the WebKit devs aren't using the more recent gccs...) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Chromium Developers mailing list: [email protected] View archives, change email options, or unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
