Title: Too many error or warning masseges
Post by: rittwik on July 29, 2008, 07:43:38 am

Hi,

I am using Borland Comand Line Tool 5.5, in WinXp SP2.
While compiling a project Code::Blocks gives one error message

Code

Error E2228 main.cpp 2118: Too many error or warning messages
*** 1 errors in Compile ***

There is no error and 99 warnings...
How can I tell Code::Blocks to ignore those warnings and compile the project?

Thanks
Rittwik

Code::Blocks does not output things like "E2228", it's your compiler that is giving up.
Write better code, get less warnings.

Thanks Thomas for you reply.
You are right, Borland compiler is stop compiling the project after too many warnings.
Actually I am using GDI+ (of microsoft) in a project where the compiler is Borland 5.5.
So not all the warnings are due to my code. Anyway, I found a "temporary" solution.
For those who may need
if you add "-gn" (without quotes) where n is a number between 0 to 255, in the compiler option
then Borland Compiler will ignore first n messages

Thanks rittwik

You could also try using the preprocessor #pragma to disable specific warnings, like this:

Code

// Disable warning
#pragma warning( disable : 4800 )

// Code here doesn't generate the warning

// Restores warning default setting
#pragma warning( default : 4800 )

Another option:

Code

// Save warning state
#pragma warning( push )
#pragma warning( disable : 4834 )
#pragma warning( disable : 4835 ) 
#pragma warning( disable : 4700 )

// Some code here that avoids those warnings

// Restore saved state
#pragma warning( pop )

Replace the numbers after "disable" and "default" for the warning numbers that you get when compiling.
