#396: GCC warning - shp2pgsql

Component: postgis | Version: trunk
Resolution: | Keywords: shp2pgsql - gcc warning

Comment (by mloskot):
This is a well-known warning in Shapelib (so also in GDAL/OGR).
The modern versions of GCC are getting stricter from version to version.
It says it's a bad idea to ignore return value from any function which may
fail in run-time, especially filesystem I/O calls. And it is a bad idea,
but most of the legacy code base do not care about it. The only option
here is to ignore it or submit patch to Shapelib.
