Variables in the Watch Window Map to Uppercase PSS ID Number: Q41436 Article last modified on 02-28-1989 PSS database name: S_QuickC

1.01

MS-DOS

Summary:

Microsoft QuickC Version 1.01 does not discriminate between uppercase and lowercase variables in the watch window.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Version 1.01. This problem was corrected in QuickC Version 2.00.

More Information:

The following example describes the problem (by placing the variables i and I in the watch window, both the variables get updated as variable I changes):

main() { int i, I, j;

for( i=0; i<20; i++ ) for( I=20; I>0; –I ) j = i + I; }
