Hello everyone, Andi and I have been talking offline regarding my unsigned right shift operator patch. We have decided to implement this change in ZE2; however, there is one thing left to be resolved before the functionality can be added. Currently the Unsigned Right Shift patch implements 2 new operators: >>> (Unsigned Shift) >>>= (Unsigned Shift Assign) In my initial patch I did not include the equivalent left shift operators because sign only affects a right shift. However, this does introduce a consistency problem, and so the question is should we implement <<< and <<<= and have them just be aliases to << and <<=? Thanks, -Jason
