Did Double.doubleToLongBits() get removed?

[Dennis]

Hi,

in http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit-contributors/browse_thread/thread/a5193c6a82eddb5e/ba5dbb35ecc0f512
Ray Cromwell submitted an implementation for (amongst others)
Double.doubleToLongBits().

I can't find this in the current gwt 2.0.3 - has this been removed at
some point?

thanks,

Dennis

It looks like it did, maybe it failed a testcase. There's an alternate
implementation in GwtQuake
(http://code.google.com/p/quake2-gwt-port/source/browse/src/com/google/gwt/corp/compatibility/Numbers.java).
I'll look at getting these back in in the future.

It wasn't ever included, apparently because it wasn't totally stable across browsers.

The Quake code has only ever been tested on WebKit (Nitro & V8), so I would check it carefully before using. float/doubleToLongBits() in Javascript is a truly, truly foul piece of work that is horrifically inefficient. Use with caution.
