Selectively disable GCC warnings for only part of a translation unit

What's the closest GCC equivalent to this MSVC preprocessor code?

#pragma warning( push )                    // Save the current warning state.
#pragma warning( disable : 4723 )          // C4723: potential divide by 0
// Code which would generate warning 4723.
#pragma warning( pop )                     // Restore warnings to previous state.

We have code in commonly included headers which we do not want to generate a specific warning for. However, we want files which include those headers to continue to generate that warning (if the project has that warning enabled).

This is possible in GCC since version 4.6, or around June 2010 in the trunk.

Here's an example:

#pragma GCC diagnostic push
#pragma GCC diagnostic error "-Wuninitialized"
    foo(a);			/* error is given for this one */
#pragma GCC diagnostic push
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wuninitialized"
    foo(b);			/* no diagnostic for this one */
#pragma GCC diagnostic pop
    foo(c);			/* error is given for this one */
#pragma GCC diagnostic pop
    foo(d);			/* depends on command line options */

The closest thing is the GCC diagnostic pragma, #pragma GCC diagnostic [warning|error|ignored] "-Wwhatever". It isn't very close to what you want, and see the link for details and caveats.

I've done something similar. For third-party code, I didn't want to see any warnings at all. So, rather than specify -I/path/to/libfoo/include, I used -isystem /path/to/libfoo/include. This makes the compiler treat those header files as "system headers" for the purpose of warnings, and so long as you don't enable -Wsystem-headers, you're mostly safe. I've still seen a few warnings leak out of there, but it cuts down on most of the junk.

Note that this only helps you if you can isolate the offending code by include-directory. If it's just a subset of your own project, or intermixed with other code, you're out of luck.

This is an expansion to Matt Joiner's answer.

If you don't want to spawn pragmas all over your code, you can use the _Pragma operator:

#ifdef __GNUC__
#  define DIAGNOSTIC_ERROR(w) _Pragma("GCC diagnostic error \"" w "\"")
#  define DIAGNOSTIC_IGNORE(w) _Pragma("GCC diagnostic ignore \"" w "\"")
#  define DIAGNOSTIC_PUSH _Pragma("GCC diagnostic push")
#  define DIAGNOSTIC_POP _Pragma("GCC diagnostic pop")
#endif
// (...)

DIAGNOSTIC_ERROR("-Wuninitialized")
foo(a); // Error

DIAGNOSTIC_PUSH
DIAGNOSTIC_IGNORE("-Wuninitialized")
foo(a); // No error

DIAGNOSTIC_POP
foo(a); // Error
