            Bug ID: 19269
           Summary: Missing warning for "char* foo, bar;"
           Product: clang
           Version: 3.4
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: Frontend
          Assignee: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: htam at apple.com

    Classification: Unclassified

There is currently no warning for declaring two variables of pointer type in
the same declaration where the user forgets the second asterisk.

Example:
extern int foo(int);
extern int foo(int*);

int bar() {
  char* a, b;
  return foo(a) + foo(b);
}


Clang should emit a warning that b was probably supposed to be a pointer.
