Description Matt Heitz CLA 2011-06-29 16:26:23 EDT 
Try compiling this code.
	a float;
	a = a * 100;
There's an error on the * expression, as if the function for * isn't found.  But it's right there in SimpleTypes.egl.
Comment 1 Paul Harmon CLA 2011-07-07 12:19:43 EDT 
This turned out to be a type in the operation definition in Float64 and Float32 in org.eclipse.edt.compiler\eglsource\egl\lang\SimpleTypes.egl

The definition for the binary minus was defined with @Operation{"*"}


This was causing the code to think there were 2 operations for multiply, and so it returned a null.

I have updated the EGL source and the edtCompiler.eglar files to fix this problem.

"This turned out to be a type" ... you get extra credit for making a typo in the word typo.

Verified.
