Re: [Tinycc-devel] Regarding Long double Constant

[Christian Jullien]

No, I think he probably meant (1F-1F) to get 0.0F value?

Hello Ayush,

tccgen.c:8105:41: error: 'f1' undeclared (first use in this function); did you 
mean 'y1'?
 8105 |                 else if (vtop->c.ld == (f1-f1) )
      |                                         ^~
      |                                         y1

I don't know where you found f1 in that
function but the build is broken right now.
Typo?

Regards.
