[kaffe] Suspicious changes

[Gwenole Beauchesne]

Hi,

While tracking down my regressions on x86_64, I came accross the 
following (unrelated) problem:

2004-03-24  Dalibor Topic <robilad at kaffe.org>

         * kaffe/kaffevm/support.c,
         libraries/clib/net/PlainSocketImpl.c:
         Fixed remaining 'foo' is not defined warnings.

which, for this problem, looks like:

@@ -384,7 +384,7 @@ execute_java_constructor(const char* cna
     be marked as 'D'.  No known port uses this.  In fact, alpha must
     explicitly set it to 0, to prevent PROMOTE_TO_64bits from enabling
     it.  */
-#if PROMOTE_jfloat2jdouble
+#if defined(PROMOTE_jfloat2jdouble)
  # define PROM_f d
  #else
  # define PROM_f f

My interpretation of the C standard tells that in "#if FOO", if FOO is 
not defined, it will yield 0. Besides, "#if defined(FOO)" will yield 
true even if FOO is defined to 0.

Thus, since I had #define PROMOTE_jfloat2jdouble 0 in 
config/x86_64/sysdepCallMethod.h, Kaffe will do jfloat to jdouble 
promotion, which is not wanted.

I could remove that definition from x86_64 sysdepCallMethod.h, but that 
would IMHO still hide the bug that you now check for the macro being 
defined instead of its actual value. I believe this is why I see 
Double*.java regressions [when using an x86 built rt.jar].

I will have a closer look when I actually fix the remaining issues with 
an x86_64 built rt.jar. ;-) For now, I determined the regression 
occurred between 2004/03/23 and 2004/03/26.

Bye,
Gwenolé.
