Hello there,

newlib-2.5.0/newlib/libc/sys/linux/iconv/gconv_trans.c:196]: (warning) Char literal compared with pointer 'newp.fname'. Did you intend to dereference it?

Source code is

              strcpy ((char *) newp->fname, runp->name);
              while(newp->fname != '\0') newp->fname++;

Maybe better code

              strcpy ((char *) newp->fname, runp->name);
              while(*(newp->fname) != '\0') newp->fname++;

Regards

David Binderman
