Re: g++ no warning about uninitialized variables

I am using eclipse and gnu. (Maybe my version is to old.)
I have

   t=5;
}

int main() {
  int a, b,c;

As you can see a lot of uninitialized variables, but when I compile I
get no warnings. Here is the result of a compilisation:

**** Build of configuration Debug for project test ****

make all
Building file: ../src/test.cpp
Invoking: Cygwin C++ Compiler
g++ -D_CYGWIN -O0 -g3 -pedantic -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0 -MMD -MP
-MF"src/test.d" -MT"src/test.d" -o"src/test.o" "../src/test.cpp"
Finished building: ../src/test.cpp

Building target: test.exe
Invoking: Cygwin C++ Linker
g++  -o"test.exe"  ./src/test.o
Finished building target: test.exe

Why don't I get a warning?


likely your makefile is swallowing the output.

g++ -Wall -pedantic prova.cpp -o prova
prova.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
prova.cpp:18:8: warning: ‘c’ is used uninitialized in this function
