That's because of the recently discovered NaN bug; the code generated for uninitialized floats and doubles needs to change. It's not a problem with isIdentical. > But it shouldn't be this hard.

It is easy to say in the spec "x is y does a bitwise compare, which > for all builtin types except for floating point types is equivalent to > equality" I think this would be a good idea. I've thought that several times myself. I created the isIdentical() function because I think there's a need for it. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
