The
fmt::internal::do_throw
workaround for 'bogus MSVC warning about unreachable code' has a unwanted side effect when using time formatting. It is always my goal to have no warning in my code, but when I building my project (CamStudio fork ) with warning level 4. I get a nicewarning C4715: 'fmt::v5::localtime': not all control paths return a value
warning. This PR should resolve this issue, although i'm not sure about the fix itself. It feels like adding additional noise.One thing I also tried was to remove the
fmt::internal::do_throw
workaround completely and fix the warnings about unreachable code by removing the unreachable code. But you would have done that already if that would have fixed it.
