Hi guys,
I keep on getting this warning in VC++ 6.
'C:/GBA_DEV/SpriteCtrl/Source/gba_dma.h:60:6: warning: no newline at end of file'
Everytime I add a header file to my project another identical warning appears. I know the warning should be self explainitory but this one has kinda stumped me. I'm using DevKitAdv r4 (GCC 3.0.2).
Hope u can help.

Try adding a blank line at the end of each affected header file. Some older C compilers and C++ compilers can't handle header files that don't have a newline at the end, and GCC gives warnings for violations of practices listed in ANSI C++ as "recommended".

That's like... one of the most OBVIOUS warnings... 0_o
But it's one of those which you can ignore.

I found it to be annoying so I just put the extra line in so it wouldn't say that and I can really concentrait on my real problems. Just a personal preference thats all.

If ur using DevKitAdv as the compiler from within visual studio, thats ur problem. Theres a stupid bug in DevKitAdv that makes it want a new line at the end of every file. Its harmless but annoying

That's not a bug. It's part of the ANSI C standard, which recommends that all source code files end with a newline character. GCC treats violations of the standard's requirements as errors, and it issues warnings for violations of the standard's recommendations.
