The latest version of this topic can be found at SafeGreaterThan.

Compares two numbers.

Syntax

template<typename T, typename U>  
inline bool SafeGreaterThan (  
   const T t,  
   const U u  
) throw ();  

Parameters

[in] t
The first number to compare. This must be of type T.

[in] u
The second number to compare. This must be of type U.

Return Value

true if t is greater than u; otherwise false.

Remarks

SafeGreaterThan extends the regular comparison operator by enabling you to compare two different types of numbers.

This method is part of SafeInt Library and is designed for a single comparison operation without creating an instance of the SafeInt Class.

Note

This method should only be used when a single mathematical operation must be protected. If there are multiple operations, you should use the SafeInt class instead of calling the individual stand-alone functions.

For more information about the template types T and U, see SafeInt Functions.
