https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5832 <p> Somewhat petty squawk, but were are full believers in using tools to locate problems at compile time. So our command line includes -Wall -Wextra -Woverloaded-virtual -Wreorder -Weffc++. Using -Weffc++ results in a non-virtual dtor warning for nil_t. Specifying -Wno-non-virtual-dtor with -Weffc++ has no effect. Boost appears to be collateral damage on this one. </p> <p> /usr/include/boost/test/unit_test_suite.hpp: </p> <p> PREVIOUS: struct nil_t { } </p> <p> MODIFIED: struct nil_t { </p> <blockquote> <p> explicit nil_t() { } virtual ~nil_t() { } </p> </blockquote> <p> }; </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5832 Trac 1.4.3 Steven Watanabe Tue, 30 Aug 2011 04:09:51 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5832#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5832#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">invalid</span> </li> <li><strong>component</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">None</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">test</span> </li> </ul> <p> Sorry, but -Weffc++ is basically useless with Boost. It enforces conventions which are simply not applicable. Note that -Wnon-virtual-dtor is more limited than -Weffc++, since -Wnon-virtual-dtor only applies to polymorphic classes. </p> Ticket John Maddock Sun, 16 Oct 2011 18:58:00 GMT
