BUG: Compiler Incorrectly Decorates C++ Operators |
Q116169
7.00 | 1.00 1.50 1.51 1.52 MS-DOS | WINDOWS kbtool kbbuglist ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - The Microsoft C/C++ Compiler (CL.EXE), included with: - Microsoft C/C++ for MS-DOS, version 7.0 - Microsoft Visual C++ for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.5, 1.51 and 1.52 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== The Microsoft C++ Compiler for MS-DOS, versions 8.0 and 8.0c, gives class operators incorrect function signatures. This does not cause compiler or linker errors to be generated, but it does, however, cause problems when you try to debug the application. Specifically, CodeView is unable to find the function by means of the Label/Function option on the Search menu. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug with the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available. MORE INFORMATION ================ To view this problem, use the following steps: 1. Type in the sample code shown below. 2. After compiling the application, start CodeView to debug the application. 3. In CodeView, choose the Label/Function option from the Search menu. 4. Type in "testclass::int" (without the quotes) and press Return. CodeView will display a dialog box saying "unknown symbol". NOTE: This problem does not prevent the application from functioning properly. Sample Code ----------- /* Compile options needed: /Zi /Od */ #include struct testclass { int i; operator int() { return i; }; }; void test(int i) { printf("%d\n",i); } void main() { testclass f; f.i = 13; test(f); } Additional reference words: 1.00 1.50 7.00 8.00 8.00c KBCategory: kbtool kbbuglist KBSubcategory: CPPIss
