Description

compiling e.g libs/graph/src/graphml.cpp warns ...

Caused by the template: template<class Ch>

inline size_t get_index(const Ch c) {

If not ASCII char, its sematic is same as plain 'z' if (c > 255) {

return 'z';

} return c;

}


How to avoid ? Just specify additionally a user defined implementation of get_index for the "char" type :

inline size_t get_index(const char c) {

return c;

}

template<class Ch> inline size_t get_index(const Ch c) {

If not ASCII char, its sematic is same as plain 'z' if (c > 255) {

return 'z';

} return c;

}


I checked the code size (using gcc4.0) : same and the difference of the ASM code: "same"
