Subject: [Bug c++/43943] "warning: no return statement in function returning non-void" should be an error
Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2010 20:36:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100429203643.5375.qmail@sourceware.org> (raw)

------- Comment #2 from redi at gcc dot gnu dot org  2010-04-29 20:36 -------
that should be -Werror=return-type 

but spelling aside, this is not a bug now

the compiler MUST NOT reject it by default, since a function with a missing
return is valid as long as the caller does not use the (missing) return value. 
making this an unconditional error would be non-conforming

if you want that behaviour, use -Werror=return-type
