Hi, all
This patch fix PR 14394. Reported by Bud. Test case:
cat z.f
REAL AVS,BVS
BVS = 1.5747025767
AVS = TAN(BVS)
PRINT*,AVS
END
There is one problem converting the real type from mpf to gcc tree. With
-fdump-parse-tree we can see fortran gets the input and parse correctly.
gfc_conv_mpf_to_tree in trans-const.c use string as the intermediate of the
conversion. As convert mpf to string, we specify the maximum digits number of
the real value. In my patch, I loosen the limit.
I tested real and real*8 type with the patch. The real type got the same
result with Intel's compiler. But with real*8 type, gfortran gave the result:
-255.998704134517, compared with Intel's -255.995833263172. The difference of
them is above 0.002. With calculator I comfirmed the gfortran's result should
be correct. But can anyone give more comparation with other compilers. What's
your opinion?
