            Bug ID: 104397
           Summary: Wrong warning message about global static variable in
                    module(.hpp, .cpp)
           Product: gcc
           Version: 9.3.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org

Output of "gcc -v -save-temps all-your-options source-file && neofetch
--stdout"

class.hpp
-------------
#ifndef CLASS
#define CLASS
static int a;
class Class
{
public:
    Class();
    ~Class();
private:
    int b;
    int c;
};
#endif

class.cpp
---------------
#include "class.hpp"
#include <stdio.h>
Class::Class() : b(0), c(0)
{
    a++;
    printf("%d\n", a);
};

Class::~Class()
{
    printf("%d\n", a);
    a--;
}

main.cpp
-------------
#include "class.hpp"
int main()
{
    Class a, b, c, d;
    return 0;
}


Compiling that by command:
g++ -Wall class.hpp class.cpp main.cpp -o main

generate next warning:

class.hpp:3:12: warning: ‘a’ defined but not used [-Wunused-variable]
    3 | static int a;
      |            ^

which is wrong, because variable a used for output.

Output of
gcc -v -save-temps all-your-options source-file && neofetch --stdout
