Q112057: FIX: F1001 in regasg.c with Adjustable Sized COMPLEX and /4Yb

Article: Q112057
Product(s): Microsoft Fortran Compiler
Version(s): 1.0,1.0a
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): 
Last Modified: 24-MAR-2000

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft FORTRAN PowerStation for MS-DOS, versions 1.0, 1.0a 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

Compiling a routine (that uses adjustable sized COMPLEX arrays in an expression
with a COMPLEX constant) with the /4Yb (or $debug) option may produce the
following error with FORTRAN PowerStation 1.0:

  fatal error F1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
  (compiler file '@(#)regasg.c:1.25', line 451)
  Contact Microsoft Product Support Services

Using FORTRAN PowerStation 1.0a, the following error may be produced:

  fatal error F1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
  (compiler file '@(#)regasg.c:1.25', line 453)
  Contact Microsoft Product Support Services

RESOLUTION
==========

Either use the CMPLX or DCMPLX intrinsic function on the COMPLEX constant, or do
not compile with extended error handling.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in FORTRAN PowerStation versions
1.0 and 1.0a for MS-DOS. This problem was corrected in FORTRAN PowerStation 32.

MORE INFORMATION
================

To demonstrate the problem, compile the sample code below with the Microsoft
FORTRAN PowerStation:

Sample Code #1
--------------

  $debug
        SUBROUTINE FILTER(FFT1,FFT2,N)
        complex fft1(n),fft2(n)
        fft1(n)=(0,1)*fft2(n)
        return
        end

The internal compiler error can be alleviated by using the CMPLX intrinsic
function as shown in the example below:

Sample Code #2
--------------

  $debug
        SUBROUTINE FILTER(FFT1,FFT2,N)
        complex fft1(n),fft2(n)
        fft1(n)=CMPLX(0,1)*fft2(n)
        return
        end
