Hi, all:

Environment:
Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers

Version: Indigo Service Release 2
Build id: 20120216-1857

I'm trying to build a C/C++ project using Eclipse CDT. Everything seems to be fine, except one thing makes me annoyed. Some warnings display red, which I thought should display yellow.

The warnings displaying in red include:

Quote:

1) Warning: Multi-line comments [-Wcomment]
2) Warning: Comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
3) Warning: ' ' defined but not used [-Wunused-variable]

Please help, how to make the warnings display yellow, instead of red?

Windows->Preference->C/C++->Code Analysis

I can see where I can specify the Severity of specific problem. However, there seems to be nowhere corresponds to the above 3 warnings.

This are warnings from the compiler so no need to fiddle with the Code Analysis settings.
- Are the warnings shown in English?
- Are all warnings shown in red or only some of them?
- Which error parsers are active in Project Properties->C/C++ Build->Settings: Error parsers?

Before you ask
- search this forum
- see the FAQ http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ
- google
