The conversion methods in `APFloat` only produce plain-old-data-types: ``` double convertToDouble() const; float convertToFloat() const; ``` There is no ``` APFloat convertToOtherSemantics(const fltSemantics &) const; ``` method. What I can do is 1. convert the APFloat to float or double, depending on what the semantics is; cast to double then load into an APFloat with double semantics and then search into the set 2. parse the textual representation of the FloatingLiteral directly into an APFloat with double semantics. ================ Comment at: clang-tidy/readability/MagicNumbersCheck.cpp:76-86 + IgnoredFloatingPointValues.reserve(IgnoredFloatingPointValuesInput.size()); + IgnoredDoublePointValues.reserve(IgnoredFloatingPointValuesInput.size()); + for (const auto &InputValue : IgnoredFloatingPointValuesInput) { + llvm::APFloat FloatValue(llvm::APFloat::IEEEsingle()); + FloatValue.convertFromString(InputValue, DefaultRoundingMode); + IgnoredFloatingPointValues.push_back(FloatValue.convertToFloat()); + ---------------- 0x8000-0000 wrote: > 0x8000-0000 wrote: > > aaron.ballman wrote: > > > 0x8000-0000 wrote: > > > > aaron.ballman wrote: > > > > > 0x8000-0000 wrote: > > > > > > aaron.ballman wrote: > > > > > > > This is where I would construct an `APFloat` object from the > > > > > > > string given.
