But it is very specific.. cannot be used for example here:

bool t() { return 0 * x; } 

In the place where the check is performed we know nothing whether expr is assigned/returned/etc.

I don’t believe we have to produce message with such details.


================
Comment at: test/SemaCXX/warn-int-in-bool-context.cpp:96
+
+  if (f == apple || orange) // expected-warning {{enum constant in boolean context}}
+    return a;

> C, C++, ObjC, and ObjC++ should emit different diagnostics here. That being said, none of these diagnostics are particular easy to understand. I don't think we should ever say "boolean context" anywhere.
So I will make this as it was - C++ only.
