----------
float:  5.000000
ulong:  2048
long:   5
uint:   0
int:    5

----------

If the ulong and long cases are removed, the cast to uint gives 2048.
Seems to be only float that has the problem - it disappears if I change it to
double or real.

I only see this error on windows, linux (x64) works for me. (dmd 1.043)
This is the test case I have made after I ran into this problem:

float getFloat() {
    return 11468.78f;
}

void main() {
        uint i = cast(uint) 11468.78f;
        assert(i == 11468);

        uint j = cast(uint) getFloat();
        assert(j == 11468); //fails on windows: j is 0.
}

This code below fails on DMC, proving that this is a severe back-end bug.
Interesting on DMC, the uint case does NOT fail: it inlines in that case.
Raising severity, as I believe this is one of the worse extant compiler bugs.

What's happening is that a function _DBLULNG  is being used to convert from
double to ulong. It expects a double, but it's being given a float. So garbage
results.

#include <assert.h>
float getFloat() {
    return 5.0f;
}

int main()
{
   unsigned long j = (unsigned long)getFloat();
   assert(j==5);
   return 0;
}

The evil is done in cdcnvt() in cod4.c, just after this bit...

        case OPf_d:
        case OPd_f:

        /* if won't do us much good to transfer back and    */
        /* forth between 8088 registers and 8087 registers    */

So it elides the conversion.
This comment, and the transformation it performs, is false in the case where
the OPf_d is followed a conversion from double to uint or ulong (OPd_u32 or
OPd_u64). This is because the C functions which perform the conversion expect
the double to be in EDX:EAX: ie, it genuinely needs to be converted to double.

Conversions from float to uint work on Linux because a different function is
called, which expects the double to be passed in ST0. They work on DMC Windows
because the conversion gets inlined.

Before presenting a patch, I'd like to make sure that there aren't any other
failing cases.

Could someone please check whether conversions from float to ulong work on
Linux?
(I'm surprised by the comment that it works on Linux, I would expect it to
fail).

This is the output I get from running Stewart's program with DMD 2.031 on Linux
(64-bit, although since DMD is 32-bit it probably doesn't matter):

float:  5.000000
ulong:  9223372036854775808

As you suspected, float->uint works, while float->ulong fails.

Awesome! There's several ways to fix this, I'm not sure which is the best. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

Here's a patch against DMD2.032. It also requires a change to llmath.d in
druntime (or in Phobos1). The simplest way is to copy the contents of 
__LDBLULLNG() and put it into __DBLULLNG(). Because there's no need for a
difference between those functions (although there can be a performance
benefit, so they are both worth retaining, I think).

There was a problem with the patch (failed the DMD test suite).
Here's a revised patch which passes.  As before, it also requires a change to
llmath.d in druntime (or in Phobos1). The simplest way is to copy the contents
of __LDBLULLNG() and put it into __DBLULLNG(). Note that __DLBULLNG() has never
been used by any previous DMD version, so it can be changed without breaking
anything.
