39 /* Change of width--truncation and extension of integers or reals--
40 is represented with NOP_EXPR. Proper functioning of many things
41 assumes that no other conversions can be NOP_EXPRs.
43 Conversion between integer and pointer is represented with CONVERT_EXPR.
44 Converting integer to real uses FLOAT_EXPR
45 and real to integer uses FIX_TRUNC_EXPR.
47 Here is a list of all the functions that assume that widening and
48 narrowing is always done with a NOP_EXPR:
49 In convert.c, convert_to_integer.
50 In c-typeck.c, build_binary_op (boolean ops), and
51 c_common_truthvalue_conversion.
52 In expr.c: expand_expr, for operands of a MULT_EXPR.
53 In fold-const.c: fold.
54 In tree.c: get_narrower and get_unwidened. */
