SYMPTOMS
When you use the following compiler options for the SuperH4 (SH4) processor, statements that cause 32-bit multiplication may produce incorrect results:
- /Og: Enable global optimizations.
- /Ot: Favor optimizations for speed over optimizations for size. This setting is a default setting.
You may also receive incorrect results when you use the following options that both include the /Og and /Ot optimizations:
- /O2: Optimize code for maximum speed.
- /Ox: Select full optimization; also known as maximum optimization.
