That is what I said about enabling -Wall -Werror. But there it was ok because it reveals bugs. And now it's suddenly not ok for another even though it reveals? Sounds like double standards to me…
No, in one case it's the developer who needs to fix his code before being able to commit it (as it doesn't build), while the other case is another developer that is frustrated because your changes broke the build. The less reasons for that, the better.
And yes, I believe that clang snapshots are substantially better than GCC snapshots, maybe even than their .0 releases. But you can write as many test cases as you want, there might still be bugs in your software they do not uncover.
It's pretty clear that release versions will have a higher quality than nightly builds. That's pretty much their whole point.
Bye, Axel.
