The analyzer detected that a variable is assigned a value that is beyond its value range.
Consider a few examples that trigger this warning:
bool b;
....
b = 100;
Assigning the 100 value to a variable of bool type makes no sense. This may be a typo, and some other variable was probably meant to be used instead of b.
Another example:
struct S
{
int flag : 1;
}
....
S s;
s.flag = 1;
The flag bit field can take values from the range [-1, 0], not [0, 1], as it might seem at first. The reason is that this variable is signed. If you need a bit field with the range [0, 1], make it unsigned:
struct S
{
unsigned flag : 1;
}
....
S s;
s.flag = 1;
