ReviewUseOfInt64BitsToDoubleRule

Assembly: Gendarme.Rules.Correctness
Version: 2.10

Description

This rule checks for invalid integer to double conversion using the, confusingly named, BitConverter.Int64BitsToDouble method. This method converts the actual bits, i.e. not the value, into a Double. The rule will warn when anything other than an Int64 is being used as a parameter to this method.

Examples

Bad example:

public double GetRadians (int degrees)
{
    return BitConverter.Int64BitsToDouble (degrees) * Math.PI / 180.0d;
}

Good example:

public double GetRadians (int degree)
{
    return degrees * Math.PI / 180.0d;
}

Notes

• This rule is available since Gendarme 2.0
