498.0. "internal compiler error (C0000005)" by SAPEC3::BACHOFER () Fri Apr 18 1997 04:13

Hello,

I have a compiler problem with VC50/Alpha (11.01.7057)


c2: Fatal: There has been an internal compiler error (C0000005)
Please report this, along ...


This error does not appear when I compile this source with VC42.

I prepared a testcase to reproduce the error.

The file is on sapec3::hjb.zip
(Executor node = 49.816 (SAPEC3))

Into the zipfile there is a compile.bat which include the compiler statement.


Thanks & Bye

The original ticklish code is in CDbBase::CopyInitFile.
The problematic code winds up looking something like:

// was ... CDbBase::CopyInitFile
void foo(void)
{
  CString Line;

  try {
    Line.GetBuffer(5000+1);
  }
  catch (CMemoryException) {
    throw new COsException("oops!", 3);
  }
}

498.4Fixed for SP1DECWET::sdtwst.zso.dec.com::hutchinsonEliminating the need for clevernessTue Apr 22 1997 17:4513
It seems that the conditional constructor for the following line

    throw new COsException("oops!", 3);

wasn't placed in the correct scope.  A fix is in the offing.

This will be fixed in the VC++ 5.0 SP1, coming out around the end of 
May.  In the meantime, I hope that we've provided enough information 
so that you can find a workaround.

Thank you,

Phil
