For stylistic compatibility with the Cocoa and GNUstep frameworks, I have implemented a method called `dealloc' on `IObject'. `Object' does not define this method. When compiling this `IObject', I get this warning: IObject.m:18: warning: method possibly missing a [super dealloc] call Now, there is no `dealloc' method on `Object', so the warning is false. I understand that the warning makes sense when using Cocoa or GNUstep, because their root objects all have `dealloc' defined. But this is not the case for the default GNU runtime. Maybe we should define `dealloc' on `Object'? -- Summary: False warning when implementing an instance method called `dealloc' Product: gcc Version: 4.1.2 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: objc AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: vgeddes at gnome dot org GCC target triplet: x86_64-linux-gnu http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32995
