I'm interested in creating a macro for eliminating the unused variable warning.
This question describes a way to suppress the unused parameter warning by writing a macro inside the function code:
Universally compiler independent way of implementing an UNUSED macro in C/C++
But I'm interested in a macro that can be used in the function signature:
void callback(int UNUSED(some_useless_stuff)) {}
This is what I dug out using Google (source)
#ifdef UNUSED
#elif defined(__GNUC__)
# define UNUSED(x) UNUSED_ ## x __attribute__((unused))
#elif defined(__LCLINT__)
# define UNUSED(x) /*@unused@*/ x
#elif defined(__cplusplus)
# define UNUSED(x)
#else
# define UNUSED(x) x
#endif
Can this be further expanded for other compilers?
Edit: For those who can't understand how tagging works: I want a solution for both C and C++. That is why this question is tagged both C and C++ and that is why a C++ only solution is not acceptable.
