I'm using vs2017 and embed ruby interpreter in my game engine. In certain situation I need to use Fixnum to pass values of pointers(64-bits pointers). So ruby will use big integer to pass the pointer's values, what may cause unsatisfying performance on runtime speed. ---------------------------------------- Bug #14378: On windows, RUBY_FIXNUM_MAX of 64 bits ruby is 32 bits https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14378#change-69651 * Author: HfCloud (Xiangyu Shi) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: * ruby -v: 2.5.0 * Backport: 2.3: UNKNOWN, 2.4: UNKNOWN, 2.5: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- On windows, start an IRB of a 64-bits ruby, enter these code: ~~~ruby (1<<29).equal?(1<<29) #=>true (1<<30).equal?(1<<30) #=>false ~~~ So, it is that FIXNUM of the 64-bits ruby is a 32-bits data? But my friend try these code on linux platform and all got true(it means FIXNUM is 64bits) Then I opened ruby/ruby.h and found this: ~~~ ruby #define RUBY_FIXNUM_MAX (LONG_MAX>>1) ~~~ The LONG_MAX of my compiler(msvc140, vs2017) is 2147483647, and the ruby which is installed by ruby-installer also have the same problem. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
