Subject: [PATCH 04/27] gdb/testsuite: Compile with -Wno-deprecated-declarations on windows-msvc
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 14:00:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723130118.206735-5-pedro@palves.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723130118.206735-1-pedro@palves.net>
Several testcases hit compilation errors like:
output is .../testsuite/gdb.base/callfuncs.c:231:3: warning: 'strcpy' is deprecated: This function or variable may be unsafe. Consider using strcpy_s instead. To disable deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See online help for details. [-Wdeprecated-declarations]

Fix this by always compiling C/C++ tests with
-Wno-deprecated-declarations on windows-msvc targets.
