I'm trying to compile a simple C++ code inside my customized OpenWRT distro, but I have an error with the getline instruction.
Here it is a snapshot of my code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <fstream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <sys/stat.h>
...
ifstream infile(MODEL);
if (infile.fail())
return;
getline(infile, model);
...
I receive this kind of warning (I am compiling with -Werror flag)

cc1plus: all warnings being treated as errors
I can't understand what is the problem.
On my OpenWRT distro I am using gcc 5.x and uClibc-0.9.33.2.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
As the error says:
error: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Werror=sign-compare]
So, you have this code for(i=0;i<n;++i){
somewhere in your uClibc++ (namely, in std::getline
), where i
and n
are of different signs (perhaps, i
is an int
while n
represents some length and is a size_t
, which is unsigned).
You can just turn this warning off with something like -Wno-sign-compare
.
