[previous] 1852 [next] The %1s operand is 'essentially unsigned' (%2s) but will be implicitly converted to a signed type (%3s) in this relational operation.
Arithmetic type - Balancing

This message is issued whenever an expression of essentially unsigned type has been used as an operand of a relational operator, and undergoes a usual arithmetic conversion to a signed integer type (the type of the other operand).

For example: 


/*PRQA S 1-9999 ++*/
/*PRQA S 1852 --*/

void f1852 (unsigned char a, int b)
{
  if (b < a)                /* 1852 */
  {
  }

  if ((a - 1) >= b)         /* 1852 */
  {
  }
}
