792433 - dom/base/nsDOMClassInfo.cpp fails to build with --enable-warnings-as-errors

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[Kartikaya Gupta (email:[e-mail])]

The dom/base/Makefile.in has FAIL_ON_WARNINGS set and there is a warning in the file, so the build fails. (I was building for Android, if it makes any difference)

/home/kats/zspace/mozilla-git/dom/base/nsDOMClassInfo.cpp: In static member function 'static JSBool nsHTMLDocumentSH::GetDocumentAllNodeList(JSContext*, JSObject*, nsDocument*, nsContentList**)':
/home/kats/zspace/mozilla-git/dom/base/nsDOMClassInfo.cpp:8866:62: warning: 'htmlCollection' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]

That's a warning, not an error. We explicitly don't apply -Werror to "may be used uninitialized" warnings, because the high number of false positives. If your build failed, it was probably due to bug 792090.
