> This warning is practically pointless, and since we treat warnings as errors
> on Appveyor, it imposes spurious back-and-forths to fix it when it occurs.

> {quote}This warning is generated when a value that is not bool is assigned or
> coerced into type bool. Typically, this message is caused by assigning int
> variables to bool variables where the int variable contains only values true
> and false, and could be redeclared as type bool. If you cannot rewrite the
> expression to use type bool, then you can add "!=0" to the expression, which
> gives the expression type bool. Casting the expression to type bool does not
> disable the warning, which is by design.
> This warning is no longer generated in Visual Studio 2017.
