Simplest fix to disable the warning. This patch applies to both GCC and clang.

Comment on attachment 8432606 [details] [diff] [review] Fix unused-local-typedefs warning/error after WebRTC update (v1) Review of attachment 8432606 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- r+, though I'd welcome a patch against upstream trunk (not 3.50) to resolve any issues like this so we can upstream it.

We should really fix the build warnings. I've filed bug 1020643 and bug 1020661 on that. (Have a patch for the former; not yet sure what the right fix is for the latter, since it's in upstream webrtc code.)
(Ideally we should add a comment alongside the warning-disabling-chunk, saying that it's a hackaround for bug 1020661 & we can drop that chunk once that bug is fixed.)
(I'm not objecting to landing the patch as-is, though I'd suggest at least pushing a DONTBUILD followup to add a comment along the lines of Comment 5.)

We should back this out after bug 1020661 is fixed. Not sure what the right dependency is in this case, but at least it'll generate a bugmail once bug 1020661 is fixed :)
Depends on: 1020661
Actually, a few thoughts on this patch: (1) Sheriffs are now requiring Try pushes before they'll honor 'checkin-needed', per a recent newsgroup thread. Hence, removing keyword for the moment (a sheriff would've done so when they got around to triaging checkin-needed anyway). (2) I suspect this will cause bustage in old versions of GCC that don't support this warning -- GCC errors out if you pass it command-line args about warnings that it doesn't recognize. (This is why we have the MOZ_CXX_SUPPORTS_WARNING() macro in configure.in) However, this may not be an issue since we already require GCC versions recent enough to have C++11 features like static_cast and 'auto', which may be more recent than when this warning was added to GCC. So, tl;dr, if this passes a Try run that includes B2G, probably no need to worry about this. (3) It may be a little better to use -Wno-error=unused-local-typedefs (note the "Wno-error=", instead of "Wno-"), which should make us still display the warnings but not treat them as errors. (This will let people still see other useful instances of this warning in dom/media and have a chance to address them, and prevent us (hopefully) from accidentally introducing additional instances.)

There's a try push from comment 5 that looks okay, https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=8b3ad8f2d301 I do remember -Wno- being better supported/tolerated than -Wno-error= though (for clang I think).

Ah, apologies - I totally overlooked that Try push. (I should trust my eyes less, and lean on find-in-page more. :)) Given that the try push (particularly the B2G section w/ old GCC versions) was all green, I guess the "this may not be an issue" in comment 9 part (2) is probably the case. Hooray! And I don't really care about -Wno- vs -Wno-error (part (3)) for this particular warning. So, feel free to add back checkin-needed -- sorry for mistakenly clearing it.
No worries :)
