Rules for Operators
To use operators with the
Ivec
classes you must use one of the following three syntax conventions, where
- [operator] represents an operator (for example, &, |, or ^ )
- [Ivec_Class] represents anIvecclass
- R,A,Bvariables are declared using the pertinentIvecclasses
Convention One
Syntax:
[ Ivec_Class ] R = [ Ivec_Class ] A [ operator ][ Ivec_Class ] B
Example:
I64vec1 R = I64vec1 A & I64vec1 B;
Convention Two
Syntax:
[ Ivec_Class ] R =[ operator ] ([ Ivec_Class ] A,[ Ivec_Class ] B)
Example:
I64vec1 R = andnot(I64vec1 A, I64vec1 B);
Convention Three
Syntax:
[ Ivec_Class ] R [ operator ]= [ Ivec_Class ] A
Example:
I64vec1 R &= I64vec1 A;
Summary of Rules for Major Operators
The following table lists automatic and explicit sign and size typecasting.
Explicit
means that it is illegal to mix different types without an explicit typecasting.
Automatic
means that you can mix types freely and the compiler will do the typecasting for you.
Operators
| Sign Typecasting
| Size Typecasting
| Other Typecasting Requirements
|
---|---|---|---|
Assignment
| N/A
| N/A
| N/A
|
Logical
| Automatic
| Automatic(to left)
| Explicit typecasting is required for different types used in non-logical expressions on the right side of the assignment.
|
Addition and Subtraction
| Automatic
| Explicit
| N/A
|
Multiplication
| Automatic
| Explicit
| N/A
|
Shift
| Automatic
| Explicit
| Casting Required to ensure arithmetic shift.
|
Compare
| Automatic
| Explicit
| Explicit casting is required for signed classes for the less-than or greater-than operations.
|
Conditional Select
| Automatic
| Explicit
| Explicit casting is required for signed classes for less-than or greater-than operations.

Data Declaration and Initialization
The following table lists literal examples of constructor declarations and data type initialization for all class sizes. All values are initialized with the most significant element on the left and the least significant to the right.
