V529 Odd semicolon ';' after 'for' operator. server_getshaders.c 92


void
SERVER_DISPATCH_APIENTRY crServerDispatchGetAttachedShaders(....)

Haiku Operation System

V529 Odd semicolon ';' after 'for' operator. ringqueue.cpp 39


int
compute_order(unsigned long size)
{
  int  order;
  unsigned long tmp;
  for (order = 0, tmp = size; tmp >>= 1; ++order); // <=
    if (size & ~(1 << order))
      ++order;
    return order;
}

Bizarre formatting, but the code works. I guess they wanted to show their best here, but it just didn't work out quite well. This loop calculates the value of the highest set order. That is, the original number is shifted until it equals to zero ((tmp >>= 1), and the number of iterations is calculated (++order). for (order = 0, tmp = size; tmp >>= 1; ++order); And this code if (size & ~(1 << order)) ++order; rounds it up. Basically, it's ceil(log2(N)), a common construction used for calculating the number of bits necessary for encoding N different elements.
