Here is a source file which looks fine to me, but for which I get
unexpected assembler warnings:
#include <sys/cdefs.h>
__COPYRIGHT("@(#) Copyright (c) 1983, 1988, 1993\n"
"The Regents of the University of California."
" All rights reserved.\n");
int
main(void)
{
exit(0);
}
The compiler warnings follow:
/tmp/ccZ16701.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccZ16701.s:5: Warning: Unterminated string: Newline inserted.
/tmp/ccZ16701.s:6: Warning: Unterminated string: Newline inserted.
I'm led to believe that these error messages are not present on a NetBSD
box. So is this broken usage of __COPYRIGHT(), or is this pre-processor
or assembler breakage?
And please don't whine about me about string concatenation -- it's legal
in ANSI C. :-)
Thanks,
Sheldon.
