Build fail on Ubuntu Noble in g2d.c: last_quadrant is used unitialized; treat-all-warnings-as-errors

[ojura]

Build fails because of unitialized variable use:

  /<<BUILDDIR>>package/common/g2d.c: In function ‘g2d_polygon_contains_point’:
  /<<BUILDDIR>>package/common/g2d.c:351:17: error: ‘last_quadrant’ may be used uninitialized [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
    351 |             int dquadrant = quadrant - last_quadrant;
        |                 ^~~~~~~~~
  /<<BUILDDIR>>package/common/g2d.c:324:9: note: ‘last_quadrant’ was declared here
    324 |     int last_quadrant;
        |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~

This should be fixed by #324. I could not reproduce the issue with the 24.04 Docker image. Can you check if the PR solves your issue?

Can you provide instructions on how to reproduce this? Which CMake generator and compiler are you using? Is this in a Docker container or a "bare metal" installation?

Hi @christian-rauch, sorry for missing your response. I am glad that you figured it out and thanks for the fix. For me, it was clear from the source code that the last_quadrant variable was uninitialized, and I didn't consider it necessary to include more detailed reproduction info.

I could see that it was not initialised too. But I was still curious how to reproduce the error locally as I have seen this issue on other CI pipelines too but I could reproduce this in a Docker container. Anyway, this should now be fixed.
