I am sorry that I do not have a system where this code actually triggered a problem, since this bug is discovered by a *static* analysis tool that is recently developed by our research group, which finds code segments that are similar to a previously fixed bugs as potential bugs. You are saying that if I pass a long to the i argument parser it will cause a problem. But if I passed a int, it will be same as before and overflow will not be detected at all. --- Victor, Do you also agree that it will cause a problem if I pass a long to the i argument parser? If so, I think maybe the overflow problem cannot be solved by the patch I submitted.
