Bug in gcc version check in ippdefs.h

[Stefan_B_3]

Hi guys,

there is a bug in the way the gcc version is checked in ippdefs.h:

#if __GNUC__ >= 4 && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 5
  #define IPP_DEPRECATED( message ) __attribute__(( deprecated( message )))
#else
  #define IPP_DEPRECATED( message ) __attribute__(( deprecated ))
#endif

While this works fine for e.g. gcc 4.6 and 6.6 (if it would exists) it fails e.g. for 5.0 - 5.4

I would recommend to change this to

#if ( (__GNUC__ * 100) + __GNUC_MINOR__) >= 405
  #define IPP_DEPRECATED( message ) __attribute__(( deprecated( message )))
#else
  #define IPP_DEPRECATED( message ) __attribute__(( deprecated ))
#endif

Especially as these days new gcc major version pop up all the time I guess it has been a while since this deprecation warning has been seen...

Stefan
