You and I clearly disagree on this. Clearly, there are others on
the list that agree with me. Clearly, the guy who added the new
warnings agrees with you. Fact remains: build breaks for some of
us when new warnings are introduces.
As for the warnings you suggested, all of them are fixable. For
example, instead of casting bool to int, you can write bool ? 1 : 0.
For the while(1) case, you can write for(;;){} (which is the
original idiom, anyway).
Just getting into the habit of fixing warnings BEFORE you run
your code is about the same as getting into the habit of commenting
your code: you're better off for doing it. That's my opinion; you
may disagree. I really don't want an argument on this list; I said
my piece.
Cheers,
