Description

clang 3.7 generates a warning (in debug mode: error):

/usr/local/include/boost/asio/ip/resolver_query_base.hpp:96:3: warning: all paths through this function will call itself [-Winfinite-recursion]

This is a valid complaint, which has been addressed in boost version >= 1.55 (https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/9548). However, I would still propose to not treat this warning as error in debug builds.

This applies to ndn-cxx, NFD, NLSR, and may be other projects.

Can we mark the problematic Boost header as "system library" to suppress this warning, instead of changing compiler flags?

We can, just a little more complicated to implement.

Similar patch needs to be applied to NFD and other code bases.
