Detailed Description

Union to create double values with integer constants.

---

Some "C" compilers are not 100% accurate in creating floating point constants. To get around this limitation, once the binary representation of a floating point number is determined, it will be used to assign the value so the binary representation does not change from compiler to compiler.

This union is also used to obtain the binary representation of a 64 bit float in a cross compiler way.

// Binary representation for Double Epsilon
Burger::uint64_double_t Epsilon = {0x3CB0000000000000ULL};
 
void code(void)
{
 // Fetch as a float
 double dEpsilon = Epsilon;
 
 // Set a new floating point value
 Epsilon = 1.5;
 
 // Get the binary value as a 64 bit integer
 uint64_t uEpsilon = Epsilon.get_uint64();
 
 // Set the binary value as a 64 bit integer
 Epsilon.set_uint64(0x3CB0000000000000ULL);
 
 // Get the binary value as 32 bit integers
 uint32_t uLowEpsilon = Epsilon.get_low_uint32();
 uint32_t uHiEpsilon = Epsilon.get_high_uint32();
 
 // Set the binary value as 32 bit integers
 Epsilon.set_low_uint32(0x00000000U);
 Epsilon.set_high_uint32(0x3CB00000U);
}
