#N:ea:7300004:000:852 ea!jejones Aug 13 18:46:00 1984 Bugs found in Microware C: 1. a continue in a for loop with empty continuation part bypasses the test part and simply branches back to the first statement in the loop body. 2. constant folding in address calculations seems to be hosed; to wit, the example w_offset = offset & sizemask[LOG2WSIZE]; where w_offset and offset are integers, offset global, sizemask a global array of integers, and LOG2WSIZE the #defined constant 4, generates the assembler ldd offset,y anda sizemask,y (should be sizemask+8,y) andb sizemask+1,y (should be sizemask+9,y) std 8,s Also, the header file that describes the option portion of path descriptors (that getstat() can return) is erroneous for RBF devices. (There's a 3-byte gap that the structure doesn't notice between PD.SAS and PD.ATT.) More news as it happens, James Jones
