overflow for type DINT

[PBaswat]

in my program i am defining my variable as follows,
nullConst : dint := 16#FFFFFFFF;
when i tried to compile the program, i am getting compiler error as,
This will overflow for type DINT
even though declaration is valid.

program myprogram
var_temp
asign1 : dint ;
asign2 : dint ;
asign3 : dint ;
nullConst : dint := 16#FFFFFFFF;
end_var

if gnExternalIf = 0 then
asign1 := gnExternalIf + 0;
elsif gnExternalIf = 1 then
asign1 := gnExternalIf + 3;
else
asign1 := gnExternalIf + 6;
end_if;
gnExternalIf := gnExternalIf * 100;
end_program

This is related to #860
You can ignore the Overflow for now, it will be turned into a warning at some point.
If you want the error not to show set the value to -1

i cannot ignore it as i can not move ahead due to compilation. is there any rusty compiler switch or flag which can turn this error into warning and can move ahead with compilation.

We don't stop on non critical errors. So the you should have an object file following this error.
We would write the message "compilation aborted" or have a "panic" message if we can't generate an object file.
You can't (yet) change errors to warning but this is something we are working on/ already have planned

[PBaswat]

ok, so can u guess how much time its going to take.

We have it planned for the coming months but we have a big backlog and we might have different priorities internally so I can't promise anything.
We would welcome contributions if this is an urgent feature.
