GPC BUG: Enum type not accepted as conformant array bounds

2 Jun 1999

      Hello,

I found the following bug in the Beta version of GPC.

Best regards,
Peter Dietrich
--------------------
GPC-Version (gpc -v):

Reading specs from C:\usr\local\lib\gcc-lib\i386-mingw32\2.8.1\specs
gpc version 19990118, based on gcc-2.8.1

System-Version:

Windows NT 4.0 on i386

Problem description:

GPC does not accept conformant array bounds of enum types. The following
program results in the compiler error message:

test1.pas: In function `program_Test':
test1.pas:13: incompatible type for argument 1 of `P'
test1.pas:13: incompatible type for argument 2 of `P'

program test (output);

type t = (red,green,blue);

procedure p (a : array[lb..ub:t] of char);
begin
end;

var
     a    : array[t] of char;

begin
     p (a);
end.
