From: "igodard at pacbell dot net" <gcc-bugzilla@gcc.gnu.org> To: gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org Subject: [Bug c++/24983] Needs a warning? Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2005 04:05:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <20051122040555.311.qmail@sourceware.org> (raw) In-Reply-To: <bug-24983-6594@http.gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/> ------- Comment #5 from igodard at pacbell dot net 2005-11-22 04:05 ------- On the contrary, "const void" is a valid type, because the difference between "const void*" and "void*" preserved the typeless constness, which can be important in disambiguating templates. So if "const void" is valid as a pointer target, it is also (syntactically) valid as a function return type. It's just not meaningful, so EDG gives a warning. Note that the gcc diagnostic is the same if the return type is int/const int, so it's nothing to do with "void". Ivan -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24983
