This fixes dylanede/rusttype#30 and PistonDevelopers/conrod#874.
Here's the equivalent line in the original C header. I wasn't 100% sure of the behaviour here, the operation basically seems to be this:
After reading this SO post, it seems like b is converted to the result type
int
before the subtraction operation takes place? This even seems to be the case when doingint = (unsigned int) - (unsigned int);
.Anyways, I believe this PR changes the behaviour to more accurately represent the original C code behaviour and does seem to fix the bug when testing the aforementioned downstream issues.
