wrong order of elements in QList

[wysota]

Creator does not step into anything. The debugger does based on the order of which instructions are executed. Apparently the compiler builds the code in such a way, that the execution takes place in such particular order. As for "line 4" in my opinion this is a mark that the "?" instruction is executed and as it is the last symbol in line 3, the compiler (becasue of whatever reason) marks it as the next line. I really wouldn't worry about this, if you have doubts take a look at the instructions on assembly level or disable optimizations and then run the code through the debugger again. All this however does not bring you any closer to solving your original problem.

What I was thinking it would do:
1. assign a ->line 2
2. check reversed -> line 3
3. reversed is false -> line 5
4. assign dist -> line 3
5. qDebug

I would think it first calculates 2.*M_PI as this is used in both cases so it can be precalculated, then it'd check the condition, calculate sa-a or a-sa based on the condition, then add the result to 2*M_PI, then execute fmod on the result, then assign it to the dist variable and finally print out the debug statement. Of course, if v.use_count() is independent of the result of "dist", the compiler might put the debug statement between any two instructions in the whole section.
