...and if I compile
long long int
fnord(long long int foo)
{
return foo + 17;
}
with "gcc -O2 -Wall -W -pedantic -c fnord.c", I get
fnord.c:1: warning: ISO C90 does not support ‘long long’
fnord.c:2: warning: ISO C90 does not support ‘long long’
(GCC 4.x).
I think -pedantic is a hopeless cause here; the only way to get it to
keep quiet would be to get rid of FT_INT64/FT_UINT64 and everything
else that uses 64-bit integral data types, or to support them only in
64-bit environments (which means no support on most of the desktop
machines on which Wireshark is run; someday, they'll all be 64-bit,
and maybe even be running in 64-bit environments, but that's probably
a few years off).
