SYMPTOMS
When building a source file that contains a function with a local enumeration, and the compiler options are set to generate debug information, the compiler fails with the following error:

(line#) : fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR

(compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 1786)

Please choose the Technical Support command on the Visual C++

Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more information

This bug typically occurs only during a full build and not when compiling an individual file.



RESOLUTION
The following is a suggested workaround:
 * Turn off use of precompiled headers. This solution can result in excessive build times, especially for large projects.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

This bug was corrected in Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 3.
