double dValue = x.GetSize(); // returns the size of the object
int nRet = dValue;
double to int impossible
Author
ok, now i'm getting really crazy,
i'm using msvc 2003 net, until now i never had a problem with a double to int conversion, but now it doesn't work anymore.
my code looks like that (i know it have to work but it doesn't)
during debugging the assignment from GetSize to dValue works, but nRet gets to 1223296 when the size is 1.907,
i also tried to cast, but still doesn't work.
the other way around it works. very interesting is the fact that even the double has the same value the int changes the assigned value over time.
is there any reason, or shall i try something else??
thanks in advance,
tgar
Are you debugging a release build? Are you sure you don't have a buffer overrun or similar error that causes a non-local change to the variable?

no i'm debugging a debug build, all other variables are ok,
i also tried now this one
same error, i also restarted my system,
i checked now also these value and got also pointer to the values,
now the really interesting part,
the debugger says -> dV = 3.14
the memory location says -> dV = 1.26+011
so both are VERY different from 1223856
if you have any suggestions, maybe msvc has several bugs...

It's much more likely that your code has bugs. Try posting a minimal, but complete code sample that demonstrates your problem.

ok,
the rest is commented, not even this part works,
i tried this code snippet in another program where it worked.
i will try the code in the caller function,
i'll also try to recompile the whole program and then i'll restart my computer, this will take some time but hopefully will work...

Did you copy and paste this code exactly? Because this...
should not work. In fact, this shouldn't even compile.
double pD = &dVshould not work. In fact, this shouldn't even compile.
I believe it will compile in C. If the source file is named *.c instead of *.cpp, I believe MSVC++ will compile it as C, and thus allow meaningless conversions as such, with no warnings. (Thank God C++ fixed those issues!)

C doesn't have std::vector, or even the components required to make it (namespaces, classes, templates).
Thaligar: Make copy and paste your new best friends when it comes to posting code to forums online. "Transcribing" code like this leaves you with fake code that's worse than useless -- it tends to cover up the actual problems you're facing, and worse, generate new problems, causing wild goose chases.
I was just referring to that single line of code, which may compile in C on it's own. But, maybe not, since they might have to be the same size in order for it to be legal.
But, you're right, the rest of the C++ stuff would make it impossible to compile in C.

&dV is just an int that is the address of dV. So you are just assigning the address and not the value.
