While compiling libg++-2.3 with gcc-2.3.3 (both configured with
mips-sgi-irix4) on Indigo with IRIX 4.0.1 I got the following warning:
>gcc -g -O -nostdinc++ -I. -I.. -I. -I./../src -I./../g++-include -c filebuf.C
>filebuf.C: In method `int filebuf::do_write (const char *, int)':
>filebuf.C:284: warning: negative value assigned to unsigned quantity
The piece of code that the warning refers to is the following:
>int filebuf::do_write(const char *data, int to_do)
>{
> if (to_do == 0)
> return 0;
> if (xflags() & _S_IS_APPENDING) {
> // On a system without a proper O_APPEND implementation,
> // you would need to sys_seek(0, ios::end) here, but is
> // is not needed nor desirable for Unix- or Posix-like systems.
> // Instead, just indicate that offset (before and after) is
> // unpredictable.
> _fb._offset = -1;
> }
_fb._offset is defined to be of type fpos_t in `strambuf.h' which is
unsigned in IRIX. This might not be anything serious but I thought it
was worth reporting.
