Wrong Type with /Zi ID Number: Q26661

5.00 MS-DOS buglist5.00 fixlist5.00a

Problem:

When using the /Zi option for CodeView, MASM assigns the wrong type to encoded real constants. Labels on data declarations with encoded reals should have real types, but instead they are assigned integral types.

Response:

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Version 5.00. This problem was corrected in Version 5.00a.

Call Microsoft Product Support at (206) 646-5109 and request the MASM Version 5.00a update.
