If you look at the time stamp of this message you'll see that it was written at 2:30am. :-( I have just (hopefully) isolated a VERY SERIOUS GPC bug.
Every time I compiled my programs with "-g" (debugging) the compiler crashed with a SIGSEGV. With a bit of late-night detective-ing, I think I figured WHY this happens!
I managed to get an assembly dump of my program without the compiler crashing. The "-g" option wrote ".def _(null) ... " to the assembly output. Somehow, some NULL strings have crept into GPC.... :-( Whats even scarier is that the number of _(null) defs varied between different compiles!
When "--automake" is enabled, the compiler crashes with a SIGSEGV. I dont think "AS" was ever invoked because it usually complains about those _(NULLS). I am using GPC-970510 for DJGPP 2.01.
Now, I desperately need some sleep!! Good night :-) ________________________ | _) | | e-mail: bernie@icenet.com.au |___)ernhard |_|schirren ptschirrenb@cc.curtin.edu.au www: www.geocities.com/CollegePark/Quad/8070/
