Well the solution is simple:
return (x+0U)<<16 | (y+0U);
Would it be insane to have a inline library for every arithmetic operation, that would handle such cases and offer addition optional functionality?
- lmm 11y agoThe intersection of people who are willing to rewrite all their arithmetic to use such a library with people who are not willing to switch to a non-C language is rather small.
- vtsrh 11y agoKeep the old code, instead just start using it for new one.
- lmm 11y agoMost projects still written in C are those that make extensive use of C libraries. Making the application code immune doesn't actually reduce the vulnerability surface much - much of the vulnerability comes in the libraries the application calls.
- vtsrh 11y agoUse it for new code. Libraries are written too.
- lmm 11y agoLibraries are usually older than the applications that use them. New libraries can be, and often are, written in new languages.
