RE: integer types on HP NonStop

[Schmitz, Joachim]

The platform used to support long long, but for some stupid reason not unsigned 
long long (not sure about signed long long), this has been solved meanwhile 
(and quite a while ago). As of newest we even have a full c99 compiler (called 
c99). We also have a -Wc99lite switch to our c89 compiler since a while (I 
guess that is when the unsigned long long issue got solved), which enables many 
c99 features, but is of course not fully compliant. Both exist only on TNS/E 
the Itanium based systems, not on TNS/R the older, MIPS based systems.

That sample code compiles with a gazillon warnings "implicit conversion from  
"int" to "unsigned char":  rounding, sign extension, or loss of accuracy may 
result" and the likes. These and it's output attached...

Bye, Jojo

Subject: integer types on HP NonStop

Hi Joachim,

Have the severe compiler bugs regarding integer type operations
that were reported about Tandem/NSK in 2006 [1][2] been fixed by now?
Can you please try the test program from [1], compile it with
-D__CHAR_UNSIGNED__ and -O, and post its output?

Bruno
