166359 - Incorrect comparison in nsTableRowGroupFrame.cpp

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 157153

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

Description

[tenthumbs]

In mozilla/layout/html/table/src/nsTableRowGroupFrame.cpp, gcc3.1.1 says:

nsTableRowGroupFrame.cpp: In member function `void
   nsTableRowGroupFrame::CalculateRowHeights(nsIPresContext*,
   nsHTMLReflowMetrics&, const nsHTMLReflowState&, nsTableRowFrame*)':
nsTableRowGroupFrame.cpp:820: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 
   is always false

The code is:

nscoord rowExtra = PR_MAX(0, rInfo.pctHeight - rInfo.height);

Since rInfo.pctHeight - rInfo.height is unsigned, its value will be used 
whether it's right or not.

to correct component.

If it were me, I would do

  nscoord rowExtra = (rInfo.pctHeight > rInfo.height)  
                     ? rInfo.pctHeight - rInfo.height
                     : 0;

but the patch should work as it is.

The comment about subtracting unsigneds isn't really right. It's not 
that it's bad but that it's always positive.
