           Summary: Clang++ fails to calculate const double for global
                    variables
           Product: clang

         Component: C++

Simple source file showing the problem.

In my project I put const doubles in a header file for global variables. But I
just realized that clang++ failed to calculate them correctly.

I've created an example program which shows the problem. I'll be attaching it
next. The file only contains variables with the factors to convert bytes,
kibibyte, mebibytes and gibibyte. The values are then outputed.

If the variables are declared/defined globally, their values are wrong. If they
are declared/defined locally, they are good.

g++ correctly calculates them.

$ clang++ const_double.cpp -o const_double && ./const_double
B_to_KiB   =0.000976562
B_to_MiB   =9.53674e-07
B_to_GiB   =0
KiB_to_B   =1024
KiB_to_MiB =0
KiB_to_GiB =0
MiB_to_B   =inf
MiB_to_KiB =inf
MiB_to_GiB =0.000976562
GiB_to_B   =inf
GiB_to_KiB =inf
GiB_to_MiB =1024

compared to:
$ g++ const_double.cpp -o const_double && ./const_double
B_to_KiB   = 0.000976562
B_to_MiB   = 9.53674e-07
B_to_GiB   = 9.31323e-10
KiB_to_B   = 1024
KiB_to_MiB = 1
KiB_to_GiB = 0.000976562
MiB_to_B   = 1.04858e+06
MiB_to_KiB = 1
MiB_to_GiB = 0.000976562
GiB_to_B   = 1.07374e+09
GiB_to_KiB = 1024
GiB_to_MiB = 1024


Using clang built from svn revision 103172 on ArchLinux.
