Hi everyone,
While working on the dual interface to the Plplot core functions for Fortran
(that is: both single and double precision at the same time), I stumbled upon
the interface for plbtime and plctime (possibly also plconfigtime, but I have
not looked at that yet). I think our current use of PLFLT for the "ctime"
arguments to these functions is incorrect. If PLFLT is defined as
single-precision, then the functions will not give correct results, since
single-precision reals have too little resolution.
I suggest we explcitly use the "double" type for these functions. Perhaps a
minor detail that only comes into play if someone does decide to use
single-precision for the core library, but still, it would lead to surprising
results.
Do you agree or am I misinterpreting something?
Regards,
Arjen
