Wes <wessjunk at gmail dot com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |wessjunk at gmail dot com --- Comment #22 from Wes <wessjunk at gmail dot com> 2012-05-05 15:09:22 UTC --- I agree with David. My code has many instances of things like a+=2 where a is a char and this makes -Wconversion useless to me. It's too bad, since it would really be helpful as I am in the process of changing some data types in the code. If someone really thinks there should be a warning for this behavior, how about adding a separate -Wchar-arithmetic warning which warns on all char arithmetic and see how much people use it.
