The operator >> is undefined for the argument type(s) float, float

okay so I think I understand the problem

Java: 1.4.blah

bitwise operators aren't overloaded to comprehend int >> float and vice versa

thought's?

code:

floatA >> 0 & 0x1 results in

Quote:
The operator >> is undefined for the argument type(s) float, float

SO...

Do I need to include a relevant library to provide overloaded maths operators? if so anyone have any suggestions on such wonders?

Or perhaps overload the function myself if that is allowed, AFAIK it is.

Or some third option involving doofy syntax errors, or just good old fashioned lack of understanding.

Reading up on stack overflow etc.. and reffing the java 1.4.2

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/...eredImage.html

Personal basis

http://docs.oracle.com/javame/config...217/index.html

and

KDK 1.3

https://kdk-javadocs.s3.amazonaws.com/1.3/index.html

For general reference while I get up to speed.

Thanks for your time.

I did consider casting solutions but they don't seem likely to make this go away. but I could be wrong.

the ultimate goal is to derive two ints

[thisIsJustAnIndicationOfTheVariableType]

one:

[float] + [int] >> 1 & 0x1 * [float]

two:

[float] + [int] >> 0 & 0x1 * [float]

which I assume is a 3d rotation matrix wangle of some kind from the look of it.

ta very much.

AND YES. I am gurgling it like a good little dev: Go go google

bitwise operators are only defined for types on which they make sense

(and no, operators cannot be overloaded in Java).

what are you trying to achieve?

@twobob: Like ixtab said, I don't think bitwise operations make much sense on floats... (And FWIW, a C/C++ compiler would also throw the same kind of error: don't ).

ho well. looks like I'll have to roll all the maths out by hand and rework it then.
sigh.

I have used bitwise operators on floats in C. There are some really efficient "magic algorithms" that use that trick. But you may need to tell the compiler not to choke on it.

For example, take a look at these:
http://aggregate.org/MAGIC/#Absolute Value of a Float
http://aggregate.org/MAGIC/#Comparison of Float Values

yeah. I more or less figured that is what was happening.

Oh joy, I get to learn another languages minutia again, that's 3 in the last two months.
Might need a quick break since I have no freaking idea how to patch back together the loops jad has dumped and my head hurts now after a 48 hour stint of fanning another aspect of ecplipse into actual useful service.

Any Java developers want to jump in? feel free. : )

@geekmaster: Yes, but that implies changing data types (a double) . There's indeed a bunch of workaround/tricks in C/C++ if you really want to do it, but they all imply switching data types/playing with the representation of a float. I just meant that you can't do bitwise ops on the float data type 'as-is' .
