- There is one serious bug. Floating-point numbers don't work!
- The output is always %.12g
- I've stepped through the code (with cpr) in the function:
- Objects/floatobject.c: float_buf_repr
- and I can't see it. I switched from sprintf to gcvt and it makes no
- difference. I've used SAS/C 6.55 and 6.51, tried various combinations
- of floating-point representations and optimisations and it always gives
- %.12g. I've also compiled the same code for OSF/1 (native cc) and
- HPUX (gcc) without problems, so it must be a bug in SAS/C. Because
- the test program works without problem, I suspect it might be a
- (s)link problem.
-
- Perhaps someone would like to try gcc or DICE, or you have any other
- suggestions, please send e-mail.
