Catching overflow of left shift of constant 1 using compiler warning?

We're writing code inside the Linux kernel so, try as I might, I wasn't able to get PC-Lint/Flexelint working on Linux kernel code. Just too many built-in symbols etc. But that's a side issue. We have any number of compilers, starting with gcc, but others also. Their warnings options have been getting stronger over time, to where they ...

In one of my component sets, I am getting a number of warnings at compile time: "Method Create (Clear, DrawTab) hides virtual method of base type ControlX".

Ensuring correct Double Pointer passing method at compile-time in C++

Hi there, in the past we encountered various memory-leaks in our software. We found out that these happened mostly due to incorrect usage of our own "free"-Methods, which free Queue-Message-Data and the likes. The problem is, in our deepest tool-functions there are two methods to free up dynamically allocated memory, with the followin...

After working a long time on an iPhone app, I realized that my code it's quite dirty, containing several #import and methods that are not called or useful at all.
