HPUX C Compiler Warnings

[Malcolm Leckie_1]

Hi

Does anyone know if there is there anyway I can turn off the C compiler warnings/remarks that come from a specfic line in a source file? I could use the -Wargx option but this would switch it off for the entire file.

Thanks

If the number of the warning you wish to suppress is above 2000, then you can use the diag_suppress #pragma directive.

For example, to disable warning 2345 for a specific line or block of lines:

#pragma diag_suppress 2345
/* do your naughty thing here */
#pragma diag_default 2345

All #pragma directives are compiler-specific and non-portable.

That's +W####,####.
What particular warning do you want to suppress?

>Matti: then you can use the diag_suppress #pragma directive.

Yes, for Integrity you can use:

Was wanting to suppress the memory leakage errors.

Using the #pragma works fine and will stop warnings where we know the code is safe - didn't like the idea of a blanket switch off.

Many thanks

You didn't want to fix the leak? :-)
It's small and only once?
