> no, warnings just scroll by and are forgotten Sounds like a bad team/management, not anything to do with werror. Plenty of groups have no problems maintaining warning free code on a target toolchain without using Werror. Disrupting what people are working one sometimes encourages "just make it go" fixes that introduce bugs to silence the warning. If the simplest change that silenced the warning was always the right one the compiler could just do it for you and not warn. :)
