[previous] 3824 [next] Implicit conversion: long double to short.
Arithmetic type - Implicit conversions

An expression of type long double is being implicitly converted to type signed short. A conversion of this kind may result in a loss of precision as the fractional element of the value is discarded. If the integral element of the value cannot be represented in type signed short, the result will be meaningless.

For example: 


/*PRQA S 2017,3199,3203,3408,3447,3602 ++*/

extern long double ldx;
extern void ef(signed short p);

extern void foo(void)
{
    signed short ssa;

    ssa = ldx;                  /* Message 3824 */

    ef(ldx);                    /* Message 3824 */
}
