Poine now compiles ok (well, there's one problem with multiple perls in my
path I haven't sorted out yet, but that's another story) but I get nearly
2000 warnings of the form:
"./perl5cargo_cult_static_get.c", line 74: warning: argument #1 is incompatible with prototype:
prototype: pointer to const struct Ponie_Dummy_PMC {char something} : "/home/doughera/src/ponie/ponie/perl/proto.h", line 420
argument : pointer to struct PMC {struct pobj_t {..} obj, pointer to struct _vtable {..} vtable, pointer to struct PMC_EXT {..} pmc_ext}
or
"perl5cargo_cult.pmc", line 26: warning: argument #2 is incompatible with prototype:
prototype: pointer to struct PMC {struct pobj_t {..} obj, pointer to struct _vtable {..} vtable, pointer to struct PMC_EXT {..} pmc_ext} : "/home/doughera/src/ponie/ponie/parrot/include/parrot/extend.h", line 84
argument : pointer to struct Ponie_Dummy_PMC {char something}
I see three basic choices:
1. Turn the error off with the compiler flag
-erroff=E_ARG_INCOMPATIBLE_WITH_ARG (though the warning is
occasionally helpful)
2. Fix up the macros to do the cast (though this could hide real
errors)
3. Fix up the source in those 2000 spots to do the correct cast on a
case-by-case basis.
Any opinions?
