Found something strange... Looks like Palm OS 5 changes certain numbers multiplying. For example: double x = 0.141; long y = (long)( x * 10000.0 );
y becomes 1409. Also: double x = 1410.0; double test = 0.141; double y = test * 10000.0; double z = 0.141 * 10000.0; x = = 1410.0 = = 0100000010010110000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 y = = 1410.0 = = 0100000010010110000001111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 z = =1410.0 = = 0100000010010110000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Casting z to a long gives 1409. Only happens with certain "problem" numbers like this one. Haven't tried it in any other OS version. Is there a way to fix or get around this? - Jim -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
