| Description: |
Multiple failure modes when a large length is specified for the `-length` option to `string equal|compare`. ``` % set s1 [string cat [string repeat a 0xfffffffe] X]; string length $s1 4294967295 % set s2 [string cat [string repeat a 0xfffffffe] Y]; string length $s2 4294967295 % string equal -length 0xffffffff $s1 $s2 0 -> correct % string equal -length 0xfffffffe $s1 $s2 0 -> wrong, should be 1 ``` For larger values of `-length` , a different error ``` % string equal -length 0x100000000 a b integer value too large to represent ``` | |||
