[integer_traits problem
I'm having problems with integer traits when passed an __int64 type data type under Visual C++. I run the following test: boost::mpl::print< boost::mpl::integral_c< boost::intmax_t, boost::integer_traits<boost::intmax_t>::const_min
x13;
boost::mpl::print< boost::mpl::integral_c< boost::intmax_t, boost::integer_traits<boost::intmax_t>::const_max
x8;
What I expect to get for const_min is: ... 1> T=boost::mpl::integral_c<boost::intmax_t,0x8000000000000000> ... What I get is: 1>test_fixed_type.cpp 1>c:\boostrelease\boost\mpl\print.hpp(51) : warning C4308: negative integral constant converted to unsigned type 1> c:\projects\boost projects\safe_numerics\include\test_fixed_type.cpp(13) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::mpl::print<T>' being compiled 1> with 1> [ 1> T=boost::mpl::integral_c<boost::intmax_t,0x800000000> 1> ] 1>c:\boostrelease\boost\mpl\print.hpp(51) : warning C4308: negative integral constant converted to unsigned type 1> c:\projects\boost projects\safe_numerics\include\test_fixed_type.cpp(20) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::mpl::print<T>' being compiled 1> with 1> [ 1> T=boost::mpl::integral_c<boost::intmax_t,0x7fffffffffffffff> 1> ] That is the value for const_min is not correct !!. Note I've tried various different types such as using __int64 and also changed the rendering of he real vale to _I64_MIN. None of this seems to fix things. I've also tried making my own specialzation of integral_c for this type: template<boost::intmax_t C > struct integral_c<boost::intmax_t, C> { BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT(boost::intmax_t, value = C); typedef integral_c_tag tag; typedef integral_c type; typedef boost::intmax_t value_type; operator boost::intmax_t() const { return this->value; } }; Hmmm now I'm wondering about BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT. and looking at the documenation of BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT shows it's not really expected to work on anything wider than an int. What should one do in a case like this? Robert Ramey

I just changed the specialization above to: template<boost::intmax_t C > struct integral_c<boost::intmax_t, C> { //BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT(boost::intmax_t, value = C); static const boost::intmax_t value = C; typedef integral_c_tag tag; typedef integral_c type; typedef boost::intmax_t value_type; operator boost::intmax_t() const { return this->value; } }; and it didn't make any difference so I"m really stumped

I just ran the same test with GCC and it returns the result I expect. So, I've got a problem with Visual C++ version 9.0. It looks like the value const_min (_I64_min) is getting changed as it's passed as a template parameter. If anyone has some experience with this feel free to make a suggestion. Robert Ramey
