[previous] 3771 [next] Implicit conversion: unsigned int to int.
Arithmetic type - Implicit conversions

An expression of type unsigned int is being implicitly converted to type signed int. A conversion of this type is dangerous because the value may not be representable in this signed type.

Implicit type conversions of this nature can occur in the context of:

extern void ef(signed int f);

extern signed int foo(unsigned int n)
{
    signed int f = n;           /* Message 3771 - Initialization */

    f = n;                      /* Message 3771 - Assignment */

    ef(n);                      /* Message 3771 - Function argument */

    return n;                   /* Message 3971 - Function return */
}
