Description elvio.amparore 2003-11-22 21:32:38 UTC
Version:           kdevelop3.0.0b1 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
Compiler:          gcc 3.2.2 
OS:          Linux

the menu function "reformat source" change a line of the following code from:
        if (pt.y>=minY && pt.y<=maxY && pt.x>=minX && pt.x<=maxX)
            return true;
to:
        if (pt.y>
                =minY && pt.y<=maxY && pt.x>=minX && pt.x<=maxX)
            return true;

which is incorrect. I think that the problem is related to templates (and angle brackets), but see the code, that should compile.
Feel free to e-mail me for questions.

    real_t DeltaY =vB.y - vA.y, AbsDeltaY =ABS (DeltaY);
    real_t minX = min (vB.x, vA.x) - tolerance;
    real_t maxX = max (vB.x, vA.x) + tolerance;
    real_t minY = min (vB.y, vA.y) - tolerance;
    real_t maxY = max (vB.y, vA.y) + tolerance;
    real_t a, b, c, nX, nY;

    if (AbsDeltaX<=Math<real_t>::EPSILON && AbsDeltaY<=Math<real_t>::EPSILON)
    {
        // the bug happens here: 'pt.y>' 'newline' '=minY'
        // '>=' is broken when the source is reformatted
        if (pt.y>=minY && pt.y<=maxY && pt.x>=minX && pt.x<=maxX)
            return true;
        else
            return false;
    }
    // other code ...

    // NOTE that the same code is not affected by any bug if I don't use Math<real_t>::EPSILON

            return true;
        else
            return false;
    }
    // the same line, without bug
    if (pt.y>=minY && pt.y<=maxY && pt.x>=minX && pt.x<=maxX)
        return true;

Confirmed on Kdevelop-3.1.2 (KDE-3.3.2)
Comment 2 Paulo Moura Guedes 2004-12-09 13:29:05 UTC
Can't reproduce with kdevelop-3.1.1 from yoper.

CORRECTION:

> Confirmed on Kdevelop-3.1.2 (KDE-3.3.2) 
This is on KDE-3.3.2 compiled from sources (gcc-3.3.3) on Fedora Core 1.

When I use the same sources (kdevelop-3.1.2 on KDE-3.3.2) compiled (gcc-3.4.2) on Fedora Core 3, the bug does *not* happen (i.e formatting works OK).

So what you are saying is that astyle has a bug with gcc < 3.4.2 ?
Comment 5 Philippe Rigault 2004-12-10 06:22:26 UTC
> So what you are saying is that astyle has a bug with gcc < 3.4.2 ? 

From the symptoms, it looks like it, but I looked into this further and did not reach conclusive evidence yet.

I downloaded astyle_1.15.3 from sourceforge and tested it on:

A) Fedora Core 1 box (i686) with gcc-3.3.3
B) Fedora Core 3 box (i686) with gcc-3.4.2

A) astyle compiles fine. Consistently shows the bug
1. astyle --style=gnu testcase.cc (same with --style=kr and --style=ansi)
      if (pt.y>
          =minY && pt.y<=maxY && pt.x>=minX && pt.x<=maxX)

2. astyle --style=linux testcase.cc
                if (pt.y>
                                =minY && pt.y<=maxY && pt.x>=minX && pt.x<=maxX)

B) astyle does not compile with gcc-3.4.2 (which is correct behaviour, because astyle_main.cpp should not compile):
$ make
g++ -Wall -Wno-sign-compare -O2 -c ASResource.cpp
g++ -Wall -Wno-sign-compare -O2 -c ASBeautifier.cpp
g++ -Wall -Wno-sign-compare -O2 -c ASFormatter.cpp
g++ -Wall -Wno-sign-compare -O2 -c astyle_main.cpp
astyle_main.cpp: In function `bool parseOptions(astyle::ASFormatter&, const ITER&, const ITER&, const std::string&)':
astyle_main.cpp:178: error: there are no arguments to `parseOption' that depend on a template parameter, so a declaration of `parseOption' must be available
astyle_main.cpp:178: error: (if you use `-fpermissive', G++ will accept your code, but allowing the use of an undeclared name is deprecated)
astyle_main.cpp:183: error: there are no arguments to `parseOption' that depend on a template parameter, so a declaration of `parseOption' must be available
astyle_main.cpp:188: error: there are no arguments to `parseOption' that depend on a template parameter, so a declaration of `parseOption' must be available
make: *** [astyle_main.o] Error 1

Declaring properly the function (i.e inserting the following line before line 154 in astyle_main.cpp) is necessary to get astyle to compile.

bool parseOption(ASFormatter &formatter, const string &arg, const string &errorInfo);

Then, I gave it the testcase, and it showed the exact same behaviour as on A.

Then I realized that:
 - the astyle classes distributed in kdevelop differ from  those of astyle_1.15.3 (which version are they by the way?). Replace the classes ASBeautifier.cpp, ASFormatter.cpp and ASResource.cpp. Same result, bug shows up in command-line astyle on gcc-3.4.2.
 - kdevelop has its own wrapper instead of astyle_main.cpp

So there is more work ahead to explain why I am seeing it with gcc-3.3.3 and not with gcc-3.4.2. By the way, I have two build of FC3/gcc-3.4.2: one on i386 and one on x86_64, and the bug happens on neihter of them.

Fixed in the KDevelop 3.4 branch as part of this commit:

SVN commit 595657 by dymo:

Applied patch from Megan Webb:
Update to the astyle plugin to use astyle v1.19
Changes:
- layout of the formatting dialog has changed to mirror the astyle
command line options help.
- all options from commandline astyle can be set.
- interactive display of most options selected.
- tooltips for all options
