there is a class with a static const double member:
struct Foobar{
static const double var;
};
In one translation unit variable 'var' is defined and initialized as 1.0:
const double Foobar::var = 1.0;
When I access Foobar::var from another translation unit, it's value is 0
instead of 1.0 !
Interestingly, the initialization itself works correctly, if I print bytes
at &Foobar::var, they are
00.00.00.00.00.00.f0.3f, however when dereferencing them with '*' I still
get zero !
This code
const char * ptr = (const char *)(&Foobar::var);
for (int i=0; i < 8; ++i){
if (i) fprintf(stderr, ".");
fprintf(stderr, "%.2x", 0xFF & ptr[i]);
}
fprintf(stderr, " => %g : %g\n", Foobar::var, *((double*)ptr));
produces
00.00.00.00.00.00.f0.3f => 0 : 0
instead of
00.00.00.00.00.00.f0.3f => 1 : 1
Attached is a complete example.
>>THIS BUG SHOWS UP WITH OPTIMIZATION LEVELS OTHER THAN -O0<<
With -O0 it works correctly.
Versions tried:
4.4.0 20090110 (i686-linux)
4.4.0 20090201 (i686-linux)
from Mingw-W64 project site
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=202880&package_id=245516
P.S. Intially I reported this bug to Mingw-W64 people
(https://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&atid=983354&aid=2567355&group_id=202880),
however they responded that it's a GCC bug that should
be reported here.
