Hi

I was trying to dump out onewire IDs in Hex. I took the device ID
from ow.search and called toString(16). I think this caused Espurino
to crash.... the device ID was a huge negative number when normally
printed.

Sorry for not quoting the number itself.

P.S. Where should I post bug reports if not here?

Hi. Thanks for letting me know... It's best to post on the issue tracker: www.github.com/espruino/Espruino/issues

Do you want to do it - or I can.

(-1000000000000000000).toString(16) // works
(-10000000000000000000).toString(16) // crashes
(8446744073709551616).toString(16) // crashes

Interestingly this appears to be the point at which the number rolls over and becomes positive - so it's large numbers rather than just negatives.

Ok, fixed now - it'll be in 1v61

Thanks - I guess that means I don't have to post it as an issue :)

Nope, that's fine ;)

Next release should be a good one - there are over 15 fixes in it now - and counting :)
