Bug 8474 – bitfields doesn't work with 32 bit fields

import std.bitmanip; struct Foo { mixin(bitfields!( uint, "bits1", 32, )); } void main() { } std\bitmanip.d(76): Error: shift by 32 is outside the range 0..31

FYI: Bitfileds DO work with fields over 32. They just don't work for fields that are EXACTLY 32. The problem is that since the field is 32 bits long, it is placed in a uint. When trying to create the "signed mask" though the "1" is attempted to be placed at index 32 (1 << 32), which becomes illegal. The problem does not appear if the field is SMALLER than 32, since the mask will fit. The problem does not appear if the field is BIGGER than 32, the type will be placed in a ulong. Oh yeah, and fields that are exactly 64 bits long don't work either. This is arguably less of a problem though... but still wrong. =>Changing title

More details: The problem only appears if the 32 (64) bit field is aligned with 0. THIS will not create a bug: -------- import std.bitmanip; struct A { mixin(bitfields!( uint, "a", 1, uint, "b", 32, uint, "c", 31,) ); } void main() { A a; };
