Subject: Better diagnostic for shadowed function?
Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2022 01:33:41 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAF1jjLssVerFV=9M_6U56w9Q4BczvGpPTYaDwn9m3NabtnZjgQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I recently hit this problem:
#include <strings.h>
void f() {
index[0] = 0;
}
#gcc is 11.2.0
gcc -c a.c
a.c:4:7: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector
4 | index[1] = 0;
| ^
-Wshadow (or all or extra) did not highlight that "index" was actually
a function from strings.h. For the future, is there anything I could
have done to make gcc tell me what the real error was?
