| Summary | 0000421: Inconsistent casting of -1 in RETURN VALUE sections | ||||||
| Description |
A mailing list discussion in November 2010 identified a problem with function RETURN VALUE sections where the standard sometimes shows a cast of the form (sometype_t)-1 when one is not needed. It is particularly noticeable on the wait() page where there are two occurrences of -1, one without the cast and one with it. The cast should not be there when the type is required to be a signed integer type (e.g. pid_t, off_t), but should be there for all other types used in the standard. On the ftell() page there is an equivalent problem where casting is mentioned in the text. |
||||||
| Desired Action |
At page 956 line 32045 section ftell delete "cast to long and off_t respectively,". At page 1073 line 35804 section getsid change "(pid_t)-1" to "-1". At page 1265 line 41639 section lseek change "(off_t)-1" to "-1". At page 1347 line 44234 section msgrcv change "(ssize_t)-1" to "-1". At page 1887 line 60039 section setsid change "(pid_t)-1" to "-1". At page 2089 line 66089 section tcgetsid change "(pid_t)-1" to "-1". At page 2183 line 68781 section wait change "(pid_t)-1" to "-1". |
