Wesnoth 1.3.1 configure and make warnings

[musketaquid]

When i run configure i got lot's of these messages:

config.status: WARNING: po/wesnoth/Makefile.in.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting

What can i do against it?

And make always comes up with lot's of these:

events.hpp:50: warning: unused parameter 'event'

The line in file events.hpp:

Code: Select all

virtual bool requires_event_focus(const SDL_Event *event=NULL) const { return false; }

Why is there an event given, when this function doesn't handle it?


But these are not massive errors, make runs through, and the game works fine.

Not much, that file is copied from gettext, and I think autoconf has backwards compatibility code for this. But I'm sure that the gettext people will soon change their stuff for the new autoconf version which intodruced datarootdir.

Just ignore the warnings. Everything works as expected even though is says settings would be ignored. They do work as expected.

events.hpp:50: warning: unused parameter 'event'

The line in file events.hpp:

Code: Select all

virtual bool requires_event_focus(const SDL_Event *event=NULL) const { return false; }

The parameter is there because it is a virtual function and the sublasses of that class will need to use that parameter. If you don't find that warning useful, maybe you should tell your compiler to disable it? It is a false alarm.
