C/C++ CString.Format

[IHateMyJob2004]

I have the following line of code:

someCString.Format("%.1f", someDouble);

I am getting a formatted string of "1.$". Why is this so?

I did some debugging. I think it is positive infinity.

You are requesting a to convert a floating point with 1 significant digit into a string... but you are feeding it a double type.

This works. I did find that we were accidentally passing in infinity as the arugment, thus the 1.$.
