[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47413] string to numeric parsing problems with llvm libc++

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #47413 (project octave):

The following program seems to be enough to demonstrate the problem.  I think
it should write "val: 1, failbit: 0" but it writes "val: 0, failbit: 4" when
using clang++ 3.7 and libc++.

If you put a space between the '1' and the 'a' in the stringstream, it works. 
But I think it should stop reading the double value after the 1 either way. 
Am I wrong?  If the clang+libc++ behavior is standard conforming, we probably
have a lot of work to do to fix the way Octave reads numbers, so I hope I'm
not wrong...

+verbatim-
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>

int
main (void)
{
  std::istringstream s1 ("1asdf");
  double val = 0.0;
  is >> val;
  std::cerr << "val: " << val
            << ", failbit: " << (is.rdstate () & std::ios::failbit)
            << std::endl;
  return 0;
}
