Category: APIs Group: v4.0 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: George Fulk (fulkgl) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: format(small,,2) cause error 93.941 Initial Comment: Running the BIF format(small,,2) trying to format the variable small can cause an error 93.941. If small=1.14298770E-100 then error 93.941 occurs. OORexx4 format wants the number of decimal space no smaller than 7 in this example. 7 is enough space for the 2 decimal digits plus 5 spaces for "E-100". Under OORexx3.2, RexxSaa (old stand alone PC-DOS and OS/2 Rexx), and z/VM the result of executing format(small,,2) is "1.14E-100". This bug is easy to code around, but needs to be fixed in ooRexx4 since it creates an incompatibility with older Rexx scripts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=684730&aid=2840637&group_id=119701 |
