QA·C Help - 3602

	3602	Using one of the keywords 'signed', 'const', 'volatile' or 'enum'.

K+R compatibility

A keyword is being used which was not supported in early versions of the C language. It would have been treated just as a normal identifier.

Message 3602 is generated whenever one of the following keywords occurs for the first time in a translation unit.

signed
const
volatile
enum

Be aware that message 3602 overlaps to some degree with the functionality of messages 0346 and 0350. However messages 0346 and 0350 are only generated when certain "k+r" option settings are in force.

For example:


/*PRQA S 553,2017,2211,2213,3206,3210,3211,3408,3447 ++*/

enum ET {A, B, C, D};                                   /* Message 3602 */
enum ET                      en1;                       /*              */

extern const    unsigned int ga1;                       /* Message 3602 */
extern const    unsigned int ga2;                       /*              */

extern volatile unsigned int gb1;                       /* Message 3602 */
extern volatile unsigned int gb2;                       /*              */

extern          signed   int gc1;                       /* Message 3602 */
extern          signed   int gc2;                       /*              */
