I can't interest you in supplying any comments for the "originator comments" field in the "Verified compilers" section ? It was intended that you would have the opportunity to rebut anything I said, explain problems, or add other comments.
Since what you wrote is basically all positive, I don't have much opportunity for rebuttal. :-)
I could point out that the MaxInt value and default field widths can depend on the processor type and dialect options, but since you stated the processor type and it's clear from the context that it's referring to ISO 7185 mode, it may not be relevant to mention this.
: 2. The ISO 7185 Version of Pascal-s compiled sucessfully and ran a : small program. However,. it failed to run the test suite for : Pascal-s. I plan to determine why this occurred as time permits.
Of course, I can't tell what's going wrong here. It may or may not be a GPC bug ...
: [...] heard from other sources that have familiarity with the BSO : test that it has several gaps in ISO 7185 coverage.
BTW, how completely do your tests cover ISO 7185? (This is not meant to question the validity of the tests, quite the contrary. How sure can we be of ISO 7185 compliance if GPC will pass your tests?)
