C-warning discovered

January 27, 2007

approximately 1 minutes to read

When compiling C-Code like the following example with VC++ 8.0 SP1:

int main (int argc, char* argv[])
{
    int i = 3;
    i = some_api_call ();
    int j = some_other_call ();
    return 0;
}

you get a C2275 warning which says something about illegal use of a type. Well, not really, it’s just you violated the C rule of mixing variables and code - you should have defined the int j before calling a function. Took me a while to spot it cause I thought I’m in C99 mode by default with VC++ 8.0.

Update: Fixed typo
