You don't need paretheses when C cannot possibly parse it any other way.. eg "0xffff" is always the same as "(0xffff)" in C. It seems to me the paretheses were there previously to protect the "-1" part. As for #define QUAD_MIN (LONG_MIN) they're also unnecessary, inductively assuming the #definition of LONG_MIN is itself suitably protected. -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
