Hi,
I don't think the language really makes it clear whether
overflows and
underflows are well-defined. Do we guarantee that for any
integral type
T, T.max + 1 == T.min and T.min - 1 == T.max?
This is relevant in particular for GDC and LDC since they
target a lot
of weird architectures.
Can anyone give a definitive answer to this or at least confirm
that it is an open issue?
I don't have the reference at the moment but the C99(?) standard
requires wraparound behavior by UNSIGNED integer values. I don't
know if there is an equivalent requirement for signed values.
