From: tstokes@pacbell.net (Tom Stokes) Subject: Warning: overflow in implicit.... 23 Apr 1998 08:18:25 -0700 Message-ID: <000101bd6e7c$c6f3abe0$d646aace.cygnus.gnu-win32@default> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: "gnu-win32" I am getting this message in the declaration and initialization of a static structure: Warning: overflow in implicit constant expression. What does it mean? The following is cut and paste: typedef struct INITCON { HWND hwnd; int x; int y; int cx; int cy; int state; char txt[24]; int id; } INITCON, *PINITCON; // hwnd x y cx cy state txt id INITCON BackBtn = {0, 5, 30, 32, 22, 0, 0, IDBT_BACK}; ...... // (yes, these are initial window states) There are a total of 21 such declarations. The warning occurs only once and usually at about the 17th decl. I am suspicious it is more than a warning because there are some things that are badly messed up. For example, getting the ID from the window words often returns 0 (something that is nonsensical). i.e. id = GetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_ID); // WIN32 system call I am on a WIN95 box using MINGW32 and EGCS 1.0.2 TIA Tom Stokes - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
