I have just uploaded version 0.19, let's see how it goes at the ActiveState build servers.	[reply]

0.19 failed on Activestates build system http://ppm4.activestate.com/MSWin32-x86/5.12/1200/S/SA/SALVA/Math-Int64-0.19.d/log-20120601T213822.txt. INT64_MAX is only in a Platform SDK header called intsafe.h. That was introduced somewhere between Studio 2005 and Studio 2008. My Studio 2003 doesn't have it, ActiveState doesn't have it.I added `static char right_b_error = "right-shift right operand is out +of bounds"; static char right_error = "right shift overflows"; #ifndef INT64_MAX #define INT64_MAX _I64_MAX #endif #ifndef INT64_MIN #define INT64_MIN _I64_MIN #endif #ifndef UINT64_MAX #define UINT64_MAX _UI64_MAX #endif #ifndef UINT32_MAX #define UINT32_MAX _UI32_MAX #endif #include "strtoint64.h" #include "isaac64.h"` [download] and that fixed the limit constants problem. There are still more problems. After fixing the limit constants problem I got this Int64.c Int64.xs(254) : error C2059: syntax error : 'bad suffix on number' Int64.xs(254) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ')' before identif +ier 'p63' Int64.xs(254) : error C2144: syntax error : '<Unknown>' should be prec +eded by '< Unknown>' Int64.xs(254) : error C2144: syntax error : '<Unknown>' should be prec +eded by '< Unknown>' Int64.xs(254) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before 'identi +fier' Int64.xs(254) : error C2059: syntax error : 'bad suffix on number' Int64.xs(255) : warning C4244: 'return' : conversion from 'NV' to 'int +64_t', pos sible loss of data Int64.xs(334) : error C2059: syntax error : 'bad suffix on number' Int64.xs(334) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ')' before identif +ier 'p64' Int64.xs(334) : error C2144: syntax error : '<Unknown>' should be prec +eded by '< Unknown>' Int64.xs(334) : error C2144: syntax error : '<Unknown>' should be prec +eded by '< Unknown>' Int64.xs(334) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before 'identi +fier' [download] VC is complaining about these strange constants. `if (may_die_on_overflow && ((nv >= 0x1p63) \|\| (nv < -0x1p63))) overflow(aTHX_ out +_of_bounds_error_s); return nv;` [download] This isn't C89. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w9bk1wcy%28v=vs.80%29.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2k2xf226%28v=vs.80%29. So this will never compile on Visual C unless its fixed. I don't know how to fix that myself. So what is 0x1p63 as a normal C literal?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I haven't seen that constant either. Google finds me a message for gcc which seems to claim that it's a C99 thing for declaring floating point constants in hexadecimal. I found some discussion by example, which suggests to me that `0x1p63` could be 1E63. I'm not sure why things get different between 32bit mode and 64bit mode here, but maybe your code never compiled under VC64bit either.	[reply] [d/l]

Ill be watching. Thanks for trying to get it work on ActiveState's packager.	[reply]
