Hi Derek,

-Werror. Make all warnings into errors.

Should here be that only treat undef warning as error?

Thanks,
Bob

Subject: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/2] BaseTools: Make undefined VFR macro an error (GCC)

VFR successfully compiles if we forget to include a header that defines a macro. In that case the HII option was hidden when it shouldn't be just because the macro was used but not defined.

The behaviour is totally intended by the C/PP standard. When a macro is undefined it evaluates to 0.
GCC, MSVC and Clang have warnings to catch this type of mistake. With this commit we enable this warning and make it a compiler error.
