Farid Zaripov commented on STDCXX-890:
--------------------------------------
MSVC (and ICC/Windows) also supports [__declspec
(noreturn)|http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/k6ktzx3s(VS.80).aspx] to
indicate that a function doesn't return. But definition #define
_RWSTD_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN __declspec (noreturn) in _config-msvc.h causes an
error's:
{noformat}
D:\stdcxx\trunk\include\rw/_defs.h(1158) : error C2144: syntax error : 'int'
should be preceded by ';'
D:\stdcxx\trunk\include\rw/_defs.h(1158) : warning C4091:
'__declspec(noreturn)' : ignored on left of 'int' when no variable is declared
{noformat}
The possible solution is moving the _RWSTD_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN in _defs.h header
before the function name , i.e.
{noformat}
// called for failed assertions
void _RWSTD_EXPORT _RWSTD_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN
__rw_assert_fail (const char*, const char*, int, const char*);
{noformat}
or
{noformat}
// called for failed assertions
_RWSTD_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN void _RWSTD_EXPORT
__rw_assert_fail (const char*, const char*, int, const char*);
{noformat}
> [HP aCC 6] add __attribute__((noreturn))

> Key: STDCXX-890
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-890
> Project: C++ Standard Library
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build
> Affects Versions: 4.2.0
> Environment: aCC: HP aC++/ANSI C B3910B A.06.00 [Aug 25 2004]
> Reporter: Martin Sebor
> Assignee: Martin Sebor
> Fix For: 4.2.1
>
> Original Estimate: 1h
> Time Spent: 1h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Like gcc, HP aCC 6 supports
> [{{\_\_attribute__((noreturn))}}|http://docs.hp.com/en/7730/newhelp0610/pragmas.htm#noreturn]
> to indicate to the optimizer that a function does not return. Making use of
> the attribute on the declaration of {{\_\_rw::__rw_assert_fail()}} will
> silence certain warnings and might improve generated code.
