Ticket #24 (defect)

iteration_neg gives the following results:

-------------->      Working on unit -- iteration_neg\n
iteration_neg.upc: In function 'main':
iteration_neg.upc:50: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
iteration_neg.upc:53: error: Affinity expression is neither an integer nor the address of a shared object
Compilation was UNSUCCESSFUL for the negative unit [iteration_neg]
Note that this is the EXPECTED result since the unit is negative
The unit will not be run!!!
TEST PASSED for the unit [iteration_neg]

That first warning results from:

 36 int *p;
 37 
 38 int 
 39 main()
 40 {
 41         /*
 42          * To check that the expression for affinity in upc_forall
 43          * statement must be a pointer to a shared object or an integer
 44          * The compiler must raise an ERROR here !!!
 45          */
 46         
 47         int i;
 48         char a;  
 49 
 50         p = &a;

Although the test does check for the indicated error, the presence of the warning is unintended. Perhaps p can be redeclared as (char *) to avoid the warning, and still check for the intended error?
