Has anyone found a reliable way to detect overflow in an integer
(UintXX or IntXX or even integer) ?
something like
dim v as int64 = 2
while true
v = v * 2
wend
should, at some point, trigger an overflow but all I see it do is
suddenly turn negative (maybe that's all I can watch for ?)
The other is a line like
dim inf as Int64 = 1/0
which should trigger a divide by zero or some other catchable error
but doesn't.
Thoughts ?
