Re: [wtp-dev] Top Ten reasons for compiler warnings

[Chuck Bridgham <cbridgha@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I second Chris's response - I did make
some progress before M8, but since have been more concerned over the changes
for flex project/facets.  
Maybe we can highlight the need for
community help on these?

Thanks - Chuck

David, 
to answer your question, the short answer for Web services is door #1:
Not enough time; or, more accurately, there usually seems to be something
more critical to work on. It's been a while since the last time we chipped
away at compiler warnings. We'll try to do as you suggest, and spend a
couple of hours on this. As always, help from the community would be most
welcome! 

Cheers - CB.

Subject	[wtp-dev] Top Ten reasons for compiler warnings

Many thanks to those that have worked to decreased our
compiler warninggs, we've gone from 
1239 in M8, to 
1110 in last weekly I-build, to 
885 in last continuous I-build, 
(the last chunk done by me, not sure 
who did the first chunk). 

But, 885 is still WAY too many, and 
the "top ten" list has not changed that much, 
since the last time I sent this note -- 6 weeks ago!

Can these component leads educate me on what 
the problem is? Is it that you simple don't 
have enough time? Is it that you disagree that 
its important? Would a "how to use Eclipse" session help 
to learn how easy it is to fix these? Is there some 
technical issue I do not understand? 
(I would think a huge number could be fixed in one hour, 
and do not think you have to fix all at once, let's just 
have some steady progress, and a "time-window-box" of 
1 hour is reasonable. That is, what ever progress is made in one 
hour would suffice for a first attempt. Let me know 
how that works out ... if one hour is not a good estimate. 
Can we get one hour spent during the next week so for the 
next wwekly I-build be greatly reduced? 


Top Ten number of warnings and my understanding
of who is the responsible component lead. 

These top ten projects account for 587, of the 
remaining 885.

o.e.jst.ws.axis.consumption.ui   24  Chris
o.e.wst.common.modulecore        24  Chuck

Most of these are very easy to fix and 
clean up, but does need to be done by 
the responsible parties, since there are 
occasionally cases that require some 
understanding of the code. 

Of course, if your not in the top ten, you 
still fix yours too. :)
