412786 - uninitialized variable

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Kai Engert (:kaie:)]

Thanks to Reed for making me aware of the following:

/home/reed/mozilla/builds/mozilla/security/manager/ssl/src/nsIdentityChecking.cpp: In member function ‘void nsNSSComponent::CleanupIdentityInfo()’:
/home/reed/mozilla/builds/mozilla/security/manager/ssl/src/nsIdentityChecking.cpp:693: warning: ‘i’ may be used uninitialized 

Yes, this is a bad bug, although luckily, this code is only used for cleanup in testing.

I am surprised. The Linux compiler does not warn about this!!!!!!
