[Boost-users] [boost] compilation warnings questions by a newbee

Hi, I am writing my first boost program and having trouble with the compiler warning against boost 1.44.0. Is there any way to get rid of those warnings so I can focus on real warnings in my code ? The gist of warning is : boost_1_44_0/include/boost/mpl/aux_/integral_wrapper.hpp:73:96: warning: the result of the conversion is unspecified because '-0x00000000000000001' is outside the range of type 'boost::numeric::udt_builtin_mixture_enum' [-Wconversion] Any help or pointers are appreciated. Neeraj ====== The following program is a cut down version of my code, just declares sregex #include <iostream> #include <boost/xpressive/xpressive.hpp> int main (int _argc, const char** _argv) { std::cout << "argc=" << _argc << " argv=" << _argv << std::endl; using namespace boost::xpressive; std::string keyword(""); sregex const re(sregex::compile(keyword, sregex::icase)); } ====== The following cmd is used to build it (tried g++ v 4.4.5 and 4.6 with same results) g++ -ftemplate-depth-128 -O0 -fno-inline -Wall -g -Wconversion -Wno-strict-aliasing -Wextra -Wnon-virtual-dtor
