[jira] Resolved: (LOG4NET-95) Level.CompareTo() may result a wrong Value -> sorting of Levels does not work

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-95?page=all ]

Ron Grabowski resolved LOG4NET-95.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Fixed in 463328. Replaced subtraction operator with System.Int32's CompareTo to avoid possible overflow errors. All tests continue to pass.

>          Components: Core
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.10
>         Environment: VS2005 C#

> I want to show a sorted list of available Levels.
> The sort routine uses Level.Compare(Level l, Level r).
> The result might be wrong when comparing ALL to another Level, because there is an overflow when just subtracting the m_levelValue.
> try to call the integer compare method:
> Level.cs:
> 		public static int Compare(Level l, Level r)
> 		{
> 			...
>                         //orig: return l.m_levelValue - r.m_levelValue;  -> bug when int overflow
> 			return l.m_levelValue.CompareTo(r.m_levelValue);
> 		}
> hope this helps.
> best regards, Bernd.
