Compiler warning of the day

[dexterama]

I am always forced to check if the file contains my source code whenever I see the message: "This file was generated by a tool"

[kmoorevs]

:laugh: :laugh: I laugh inwardly every time I see that! I suppose it would be a great comment to keep others away from that code. You could even add the dire warning 'Modification of this code may have dire consequences'. :laugh:

I know if the file contains any of MY source code then the message would be: "This file was generated by a fool"

The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I no longer mind being used, so long as it feels good. Being unused, though, is just a waste of excellence.

That's seriously deep.

That would be cool :cool: :laugh:

Superb :)

The guys I work with deliberately create unreferenced variables in order to generate compiler warnings:

int Somebody_needs_to_review_this_before_release;

rather than use

#pragma message("Somebody needs to review this before release");

:doh:

Software Zen: delete this;

Reminds me of a story I wrote for my blog, "I, Disposable": http://honestillusion.com/blog/2010/10/09/naked-came-the-null-delegate-chapter-1-i-disposable-/[^]

We got a phone call from a client, and they said the error message read: Houston, we have a problem! We had to scan the code, and it said it should NEVER happen. The other one I will always remember: Maybe you no run on right system!

I always liked the one I got once that told me to call my IBM sales person to purchase more memory. It even helpfully included the 800 number. This was on the IBM 3090 -- my virtual machine had run out of memory. That was also the OS that would issue syntax error on line YYY errors when you gave bad arguments to command line commands.

We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

The one that made me laugh so much that I screen-cap'd it and posted it on my office door as a personal moniker: "Catastrophic Failure" [^]
