Error description
For the below test case, xlC is producing incorrect sizeof() value for enum type. $cat test.C #include <stdio.h> enum foo { a = 0xffffffff, b = a | 0x01 }; int main(void) { printf("sizeof(foo) == %d\na == %llx\nb == %x\n", sizeof(foo), a, b); return 0; } ACTUAL OUTPUT: $xlC test.C -o test && ./test sizeof(foo) == 8 a == ffffffff b == ffffffff EXPECTED OUTPUT: $./test sizeof(foo) == 4 a == ffffffff b == ffffffff
Local fix
Use unsigned cast: enum foo { a = 0xffffffff, b = unsigned(a | 0x01) };
Problem summary
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Enumerator type before the closing brace of the enumeration is not stored correctly. Enumerators will have incorrect integeral values when used in numeric context. USERS AFFECTED: programs with values greater than 0x7FFFFFFF used in the enumeration.
Problem conclusion
The enumerator types are now set correctly before the closing brace.
Temporary fix
