(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:69.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/69.0

Steps to reproduce:

new DOMMatrix([.9, .8, .7, .6, .5, .4])

Actual results:

DOMMatrix { a: 0.8999999761581421, b: 0.800000011920929, c: 0.699999988079071, d: 0.6000000238418579, e: 0.5, f: 0.4000000059604645, m11: 0.8999999761581421, m12: 0.800000011920929, m13: 0, m14: 0 }

Expected results:

DOMMatrix { a: 0.9, b: 0.8, c: 0.7, d: 0.6, e: 0.5, f: 0.4, m11: 0.9, m12: 0.8, m13: 0, m14: 0 }

The spec defines the constructor argument and attributes as unrestricted doubles and yet the implementation internally uses float.

Hi, I was able to reproduce this issue on my machine with Firefox Release 67, Firefox Beta 68.0b9 and Nightly 69.0a1.

Attachment: Bug 1558001: Use double for DOMMatrix

DOMMatrix now internally uses double instead of float. This only fixes DOMMatrix internals so we still have to work on Servo CSS Parser to pass doubles instead of floats.

Hmm. Did the spec use to say float or something?

No prose requires a specific type but the IDL consistently uses unrestricted double.

I assume this can ride the trains. Please reset status and request uplift if not.
