prasad-alatkar commented on issue #583: NimBLE/host: Fix multiple `discard const qualifier` warnings
URL: https://github.com/apache/mynewt-nimble/pull/583#issuecomment-534856606
 
 
   These warnings are thrown with `make` build system, also when compiler option `Enable -Wwrite-strings warning flag` are enabled. Below are the actual warnings for reference:
   ```
   esp-idf/components/bt/host/nimble/nimble/nimble/host/src/ble_gatts.c:1249:26: **warning:** passing argument 5 of 'os_mempool_init' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
                             "ble_gatts_clt_cfg_pool");
   ```
   and 
   ```
   esp-idf/components/bt/host/nimble/nimble/porting/nimble/include/os/os_mempool.h:173:12: **note:** expected 'char *' but argument is of type 'const char *'
    os_error_t os_mempool_init(struct os_mempool *mp, uint16_t blocks,
               ^
   ```
   
   I understand we can always ignore these warnings by adding CFLAG ` -Wno-discarded-qualifiers flag`.
