Warning: -fPIC is ignored for the purpose (all code is position-independent)

I create a shared (.DLL) library, and I continue to receive this message from the compiler (gcc):

json.c:1:0: warning: -fPIC ignored for target (all code is position independent)

What does it mean that all code is position-independent?

What does position-specific code look like?

What does it mean that all code is position-independent?

This means that on your platform all code is compiled as if -fPIC is on the command line, regardless of whether you specified it or not (and therefore the flag is redundant).

You can safely ignore this warning.
