Title: Compiler Fails in the June 7, 2021 Development Build of QB64
Post by: hanness on June 07, 2021, 03:51:05 am
I have a program that compiles without difficulty on the May 22, 2021 Dev Build but the exact same code fails to compile on the June 7 release.

Error received:

Compiler error (check for syntax errors) (Subscript out of range:9-12075) on line 31 (click here or Ctrl+Shift+G to jump there)

Contents of line 31:

$ExeIcon:'iso.ico'

Note that if I comment out line 31, I will continue to get the same error but without a reference to any line number.

The program is 10,000+ lines so I won't post the whole thing here, but here are the first 45 lines of code so that you can see that line 31 in context:

Note that as a test, I removed lines 30 through 39 from the program just as a test to see if any of those lines near line 31 are the cause of the error but the compiler still fails.

My apologies, I should have tried this before, but I tried to compile a simple one line program and get the same error.

Literally, this was the whole program:

print "Hello"

So there seems to be some fundamental issue with that build.

Just an update to note that the same issue is still present in the 03bb0db build.

@hanness Something seems to have happened with the GitHub build system. Fellippe and I have been looking into it.

And people wonder why I use older versions....

Thanks for looking into it. I simply happened to notice that there was a new dev build and thought I would test it purely out of curiosity and not driven by any specific need or issue.

I typically try to run on a released version of QB64 but there was a build in March that actually fixed an issue I had so that dev build is my base starting point.

OPTION BASE 1
DIM A(2) AS INTEGER


FOR x = 0 TO 2

    A(x) = 10
NEXT x
'ERROR      subscript out of range

What’s wrong with the above?  By your code, I’d expect such results.

DIM A(0 TO 2) AS INTEGER will fix your problem.

Hi Steve

Yep , but it is easy to make a mistakes with FOR NEXT loops etc.

@NOVARSEG
That isn't a compilation error. That's an error at runtime.

Low priority as I can use a previous Dev build, but was just curious to know whether anything cause has yet been determined for compile errors with the current dev build.

The June 14th dev build seems to resolve this issue.
