I've also had problems with Lattice 5.02 and the -f8 option. A few
examples (from DBW_Render):
This code produced a Guru #3 ("Address Error"):
hit = <expression> && sfs[0] + sfs[1] <= 1.0;
Had to be rewritten as:
hit = <expression>;
if (sfs[0] + sfs[1] > 1.0) hit = FALSE;
This test always failed, even when count = 2.0 and maxcount = 0.0:
if (count > maxcount) maxcount = count;
But this worked fine:
if (count > maxcount + 0.0) maxcount = count;
These problems always seem to invlove comparison of floating point
values. So be careful! Or wait for the next release..... :-}
