NXC array struct multiplication bug

[spillerrec]

Code: Select all

task main(){
	LocationType p[] = { {10,10}, {30,50}, {55, 20}, {80, 20}, {100, 50} };
	p[2] *= 2;
	
	NumOut( 0, LCD_LINE1, p[0].X );
	NumOut( 0, LCD_LINE2, p[0].Y );
	for(;;);
}

The results I'm getting on the screen is 20 and 20, even though I'm trying to access an element that should have been changed.
It seems that p[2]*=2 is handled incorrectly, instead of multiplying the third element of p, it multiplies the whole p array, as if it hadn't noticed it being an array.

I fixed this today. The math assignment code worked for arrays of scalars but not arrays of user-defined types. I added a bit of code to check for and properly handle that case.

Noted you have modified BCC but when I went to get the new version it is still shown as version 3888 of 2010-06-09.
Assuming the change was in the latest test release I tried to download that but the link was unavailable :-

John, thanks

h-g-t, the link have changed, the new test releases are placed in a folder here: http://bricxcc.sourceforge.net/test_releases/
I haven't really stayed updated lately tough so I don't know if it have changed again, as the latest release in that folder is 3 months old.

yes, unforunately the latest version is still from 2010, Nov 03. :(

Hello there,

You can download the source code here (End of page, "Download GNU tarball"):

http://bricxcc.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/bricxcc/

Install the source code anywhere, change directory to "NXC" and compile it with "make -f nbcwin32.mak". Some GNU tools (gzip, tar, make) and the free pascal compiler need to be installed before.

I only use linux so I only could deliver the unix binaries...

I haven't uploaded a new test release that contains the fix for this bug. But as marvin noted it is possible to build from SVN source code (which has the fix checked in). I will upload a new test release and a new official release later this week.

Could you find time to upload a new official release for OS X, too? I would very much appreciate that.
