16-Bit C Compiler User’s Guide
N
negative integer implicitly converted to unsigned type
A negative integer constant value appears in the source code, but the number cannot
be represented as a signed int; therefore, the compiler automatically treats it as an
unsigned int.
nested extern declaration of ‘identifier’
There are nested extern definitions of the specified identifier.
no newline at end of file
The last line of the source file is not terminated with a newline character.
no previous declaration for ‘identifier’
When compiling with the -Wmissing-declarations command-line option, the
compiler ensures that functions are declared before they are defined. In this case, a
function definition was encountered without a preceding function declaration.
no previous prototype for ‘identifier’
When compiling with the -Wmissing-prototypes command-line option, the
compiler ensures that function prototypes are specified for all functions. In this case, a
function definition was encountered without a preceding function prototype.
no semicolon at end of struct or union
A semicolon is missing at the end of the structure or union declaration.
non-ISO-standard escape sequence, ‘seq’
‘seq’ is ‘\e’ or ‘\E’ and is an extension to the ISO standard. The sequence can be used
in a string or character constant and stands for the ASCII character .
non-static declaration for ‘identifier’ follows static
The specified identifier was declared non-static after it was previously declared as
static.
‘noreturn’ function does return
A function declared with the noreturn attribute returns. This is inconsistent.
‘noreturn’ function returns non-void value
A function declared with the noreturn attribute returns a non-void value. This is
inconsistent.
null format string
When checking the argument list of a call to printf, scanf, etc., the compiler found that
the format string was missing.
O
octal escape sequence out of range
The octal sequence must be less than 400 in octal (256 in decimal).
output constraint ‘constraint’ for operand n is not at the beginning
Output constraints in extended asm should be at the beginning.
overflow in constant expression
The constant expression has exceeded the range of representable values for its type.
overflow in implicit constant conversion
An implicit constant conversion resulted in a number that cannot be represented as a
signed int; therefore, the compiler automatically treats it as an unsigned int.
