| Subject: | null float constant |
hello,
when you try to use idl.pl with the following definition:
module toto {
typedef float Meters;
const Meters NULL_METERS = 0.0;
};
you have the following error:
#toto.idl:3#Error: 'float' 0 is out of range.
The error comes from CORBA/IDL/node.pm::_CheckRange(), and more precisely from the check:
1221 if ($abs_v >= FLT_MIN and $abs_v <= FLT_MAX) {
1222 return $value;
1223 } else {
1224 $parser->Error("'$type->{value}' $value is out of range.\n");
1225 return undef;
1226 }
I corrected it by removing the comparison with FLT_MIN. I think that the same error will occur for double... checks
Best Regards
Michel.
