Is it possible to turn off all macro and pasting errors (or errors of any types)?
ie:
error: macro "macro_name" passed 1 arguments, but takes just 0
error: pasting "&" and "0" does not give a valid preprocessing token
The reason is that I’m debugging code that has a bunch of these errors (which I haven’t fixed yet) that are making it harder to see the other types of errors that I’m trying to fix first.
No, that’s why they’re errors instead of warnings; the compiler doesn’t know what to do with/how to work around them. You should usually fix errors in the order they come up anyway, especially the preprocessor errors you want to turn off, because an error in one part of the code can propagate and cause “errors” in other, correct, parts of the code. If you’re getting too many errors, use
make 2>&1 | lessto get them without scrolling back.
