We're using AT&T C++ 2.0 and RCS, and placing a line in the .C files similar to static char *RCSid = "$Header$"; to allow the use of ident to identify which .C files are used in an executable. The compiler complains: "filename.C", line 1: warning: ::RCSid defined but not used This is pretty harmless, but I'd like to get it to shut up if possible. Is it possible?

I use:
static const char rcsid[]="$Id$";
No complaints from C++ 2.0.
