How to disable Clang warning “no case matching constant switch condition”












1















I am working on a project that uses code from another project, and that other code is giving me a bunch of warnings during compilation. I don't want to change that code (my project is just a thin wrapper around their code and I want to be able to pull in updates without patching all the time) so I'd like to disable these warnings so I can focus on just my own code.



Unfortunately I can't see where this is documented!



The error I am receiving is:



warning: no case matching constant switch condition '2'


I have looked in the manual and tried -Wno-switch, -Wno-switch-bool and -Wno-switch-enum but none of them make this warning go away. I can't see where in the manual this warning message is listed.



Using Google I haven't been able to find any command-line option that matches up with the error text.



Using GitHub I was able to find the LLVM source that runs a test for this warning but I'm not having any luck mapping that back to a -W option to disable it.



What am I missing?



Here is some code that reproduces the error:



enum En { A, B, C };
template <En how> void foo() {
int x = 0, y = 5;

switch (how) {
case A: x *= y; break;
case B: x += y; break;
}
}

template void foo<C>();

int main(void)
{
return 0;
}

          I'm afraid there is no -Wno-<what> flag that can specifically suppress this warning.
          If there was, then the diagnostic would be:



          warning: no case matching constant switch condition '2' [-W<what>]


          You can only suppress it by suppressing all warnings, with -Wno-everything,
          which of course I would not advise.
