clang shows this warning:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/main.c:227:56: error: adding 'int' to a string does not append to the string [-Werror,-Wstring-plus-int]
char *tmp_sys_gdbinit = xstrdup (SYSTEM_GDBINIT + datadir_len);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/main.c:227:56: note: use array indexing to silence this warning
char *tmp_sys_gdbinit = xstrdup (SYSTEM_GDBINIT + datadir_len);
^
& [ ]
It's quite easy to get rid of it by using &foo[len] instead of foo + len.
I think this warning is relevant to keep enabled, because it can be an
easy mistake to do.
This warning is already discussed here in GCC bugzilla:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-06/msg00729.html
and a patch series for it was submitted very recently.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* main.c (get_init_files): Replace "SYSTEM_GDBINIT +
datadir_len" with "&SYSTEM_GDBINIT[datadir_len]".
