Subject: No warning on type truncation
Date: Sun, 03 Aug 2008 19:04:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <dae824200808031203o1e233cfv25619c085e261533@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

In the following program I am truncating a value from long to int (on
a 64 bit machine):
$ cat trunc.c
int  main() {
int t2;
long t1 = 0xfeed00000000;

        t2 = t1;

        return 0;
}

That, however doesn't result in any warnings even though -Wall and
-Wextra are enabled:
$ gcc -Wextra -Wall trunc.c
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.

I cannot find any relevant option in the manual which enables
truncation warnings.
What am I missing?

Thanks,
Ankur
