It's OK to use doubles; doubles allow to work with integers up to 2^52. The problem is in conversion to string. And we *badly* need an accurate method for that. Unfortunately, conversion of double to string is a difficult thing, affected by multitude of factors like decimal/thousand separators, national numerals, and so on. So there's no function in STL that would fit our variety of different needs perfectly. But myftoa looks a candidate for eradication. It's simple enough that rtl_math_doubleToString could replace (and then we would deal with one less imperfect implementations).</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
