Manuel López-Ibáñez <manu at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |manu at gcc dot gnu.org --- Comment #1 from Manuel López-Ibáñez <manu at gcc dot gnu.org> --- I am not the one who decides, but the conclusion of the previous discussion was that users of _wur (which are the API maintainers adding it) do want to get a warning even with (void) and GCC's testsuite explicitly tests for it. It is fairly easy to use -Wno-unused-result or "#pragma GCC diagnostics" if you want more fine-tuning. The location info in GCC has improved to the point that it is possible to ignore individual warnings using #pragmas. That seems far clearer to a reader and makes obvious which warning is ignored on purpose. Of course, we are happy to get as much help as we can, but I would not want you to waste your time on something that is likely not going to get approved.
