Subject: Suppress implicit-conversion warnings seen with newer clang versions.
X-Git-Tag: REL_10_BETA1~465
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8cfeaecfc76a7366b336272bc76e96e09281b133;p=postgresql

Suppress implicit-conversion warnings seen with newer clang versions.

We were assigning values near 255 through "char *" pointers.  On machines
where char is signed, that's not entirely kosher, and it's reasonable
for compilers to warn about it.

A better solution would be to change the pointer type to "unsigned char *",
but that would be vastly more invasive.  For the moment, let's just apply
this simple backpatchable solution.
