Re: [sqlite] so many warnings on vc6 with warning level 4

Re: [sqlite] so many warnings on vc6 with warning level 4
Hello Gunnar, You can use this pragma to disable the warnings that don't actually mean anything. #pragma warning (disable: 4786 4666 4100 4786 4146) I debug/develop using VC2005 and release using VC6.

Re: [sqlite] so many warnings on vc6 with warning level 4
First, I use the pre-built DLL from the SQLite web site, and then use my compiler's library import utility to generate the appropriate import lib. That saves me all the warnings. Second, examine the actual warnings, not just the count. You'll find that a large number of them are warnings about deprecated library methods such as strcpy. The fact that Microsoft has chosen to deprecate standard library functions is a Microsoft issue rather than an SQLite issue. It's true that a lot of these functions are dangerous in inexperienced and careless hands. It's also true that they're very safe and have been used successfully for 30 years by programmers who understand their limitations and use them appropriately. Examine the warnings, look at the code around them, see if there is any merit to the warnings or if it's more of a chicken little situation. If you can't check all 600, spot check several which you find at random. And remember that there's nothing wrong with strcpy and strcat, as long as the destination buffer is large enough for the string being received. Look for the allocation of that buffer and see how it's come about and how the size is checked.

You'll have to talk with the compiler people at Microsoft about that. I consider those warnings problems with the compiler, not problems with SQLite. > How are others dealing with this problem at work? > The regression test suite for SQLite has like 98% coverage. High-coverage testing like this is a much, much better way to find problems that compiler warnings. My suggestion is that you turn all the compiler warnings off when compiling SQLite. -- D.
