    Shell commands

    Hi,

    I have a shell file with this content:

    Code:
    clear
    
    
    gcc -g -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -std=c11 try40.c -lm -o try40.out
    
    
    ./try40.out
    How can I execute ./try40.out only in case gcc issues no warning or error ?

    Look at $?

    Code:
    gcc -g -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -std=c11 try40.c -lm -o try40.out
    if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then ./try40.out ; fi
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Thanks this works in case of error. In case of only warning(s) , try40.out is executed anyway. Maybe turn warnings into errors ? Other solution ?

    -Werror is one way

    Redirecting the stderr of the compilation to a file, and checking whether that file is empty is another.
