Description olivier.biot 2004-01-19 09:00:47 UTC 
When compiling a Glib application with -pedantic, code using the g_assert
() macro and the like generates lots of noise (braces within expressions).

I propose to get rid of this noise by adding __extension__ (or the GLIB 
alias for it) to the G_STMT_START macro in gmacros.h when using a GCC 
version supporting __extension__.

I see no reason why this change can't go in for 2.4.0 -- we already
use __extension__ in a similar case for _G_BOOLEAN_EXPR()

        * glib/gmacros.h (G_STMT_START): Add __extension__
        to G_STMT_START to quite gcc -pedantic. (#131899,
