How to prevent warnings
-
Found this while tracking down a compiler warning where the warning didn't match the source code:
/* math.h defines prototypes for j0, j1, jn, y0, y1 and yn which gives us warnings with the -Wshadow option of gcc */ # define j0 jjjjjj0 # define j1 jjjjjj1 # define jn jjjjjjn # define y0 yyyyyy0 # define y1 yyyyyy1 # define yn yyyyyyn

These are XOPEN (POSIX 2001) Bessel functions. Frankly, the workaround used is not all that bad. I suppose it could be better to ban those names from being used as variable or function names.
