Re: [reSIProcate] test cases failing?


I don't recall the compilers that had issues with it.  I did find this old note from an IM session with Daniel a while back:

me: for the double issue - if you place a L after the float constant (ie. 12.12L) then it passed the assert on my Ubuntu system (g++ 4.6.1) and on windows
1:45 PM but apparently it had issues on Mac, and maybe on other OS's - if we could craft an appropriate #ifdef then that might be a good solution
  I don't understand what factor triggers the problem in order to craft the #ifdef
1:46 PM We could start with something reasonable and ask people to add cases to it appropriately
  Byron thought it was related to the -ffast-math opt flag
  with some platforms - but we didn't have success trying to change it

Do you know what compiler?  I would be running gcc 4.6.3 (at the moment
anyway).
