User [EMAIL PROTECTED] added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=372483#c2 --- Comment #2 from Steve Leibman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2008-03-19 14:13:46 MST --- Sure, I agree. It could be considered two separate bugs: both a compiler bug and a runtime bug. If you make this distinction, the compiler bug is new in 1.9, but the runtime bug is in both 1.9 and 1.2.6 (and likely -- though not confirmed -- earlier releases as well). Since the compiler bug did not exist in 1.2.6, I can only confirm this by compiling the following code, and then manually inserting an extra conv.ovf.i.un: using System; using SizeType = System.UInt64; public class broken_cast { public static void Main() { SizeType m = 1; SizeType i = 1; SizeType[] n = new SizeType[2] {7, 8}; m = m * n[i]; } } On the other hand, it isn't clear that the runtime should really have to go out of its way to check the input type, and maybe it is okay to just ensure that the compiler is well behaved. I'll leave that question up to you -- not sure what the spec says. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
