Question

Here’s a basic struct (I hope)

struct SomeType {
    float a;
    float b;
    float c;
    float d;

    SomeType(float, float, float, float);
};

And source

SomeType::SomeType(float na, float nb, float nc, float nd) : a(na), b(nb), c(nc), d(nd) {}

The I have a class

struct SomeClass {
    static const SomeType v;

    SomeClass();
};

When I then initialise it

const SomeType SomeClass::v(0,0,0,0);

My vales become inf or nan or -nan. Anyone seen this before, or know how to fix it?

Edit: Fixed type

Edit: This is quite close to my original example. I multiple classes with similar structure to SomeClass.

Answer 1

From what code are you seeing those incorrect values? If it’s from something like a constructor of another global variable, remember the static initialization order fiasco; v‘s constructor might just not have run yet.

Put an output statement in the SomeType constructor and check whether the output occurs before you see the incorrect values.
