Add -Wpartial-availability.
This warns when using decls that are not available on all deployment targets. For example, a call to - (void)ppartialMethod __attribute__((availability(macosx,introduced=10.8))); will warn if -mmacosx-version-min is set to less than 10.8. To silence the warning, one has to explicitly redeclare the method like so: @interface Whatever(MountainLionAPI) - (void)ppartialMethod; @end This way, one cannot accidentally call a function that isn't available everywhere. Having to add the redeclaration will hopefully remind the user to add an explicit respondsToSelector: call as well. Some projects build against old SDKs to get this effect, but building against old SDKs suppresses some bug fixes -- see http://crbug.com/463171 for examples. The hope is that SDK headers are annotated well enough with availability attributes that new SDK + this warning offers the same amount of protection as using an old SDK. llvm-svn: 232750
