>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: proton-c

>            Reporter: Fraser Adams
>            Priority: Minor

> When building proton after doing cmake .. the make process is quite "noisy" generating a number of warnings that ought to be corrected.
> One such warning is:
> "Warning(451): Setting a const char * variable may leak memory."
> This relates to the "const char *bytes;" in the pn_delivery_tag_t struct in engine.h
> The swig documentation in http://www.swig.org/Doc1.3/Warnings.html suggests how to suppress this warning (due to the way the code works I believe that it's safe to suppress this case) by doing:
> %warnfilter(451) pn_delivery_tag_t;
> in the various python.i, perl.i etc.
> I've make the changes locally and this indeed works.
> I'll put together a review board request.
