Lossless Assignments A lossless assignment is an assignment between incompatible data types in which the conversion is checked to see whether data is lost. Lossless assignments can be performed using the
lossless operator EXACT, in which the argument is converted to a result of the specified type using the
rules for lossless assignments. This makes it possible to use lossless assignments in all operand positions in which EXACT can be specified. The real meaning of a lossless assignment is the following method of using a constructor expression with EXACT as the right side of an assignment:
Syntaxdestination = EXACT #( source ). In this case, source is converted to the data type of destination and checked accordingly.
Notes
If the argument of the operator EXACT is an arithmetic expression, a lossless calculation is performed instead of a lossless assignment.
Using the addition EXACT in the obsolete statement MOVE is an obsolete form of lossless assignment.
