Title: TYPEDEF minus real4/8 quirk ???
Post by: Ficko on June 18, 2010, 08:15:17 AM
Is this a known bug or I do something wrong? :dazzled:

Code Select

.686p
.model flat, stdcall
option casemap :none
FLOAT TYPEDEF REAL4
.data
FLN01 REAL4 -0.1  ;OK
FLN02 FLOAT 0.1  ;OK
FLN03 FLOAT -0.1 ;Error ???
.code
start:
xor eax, eax
end start

Interesting: I get two different errors...

Code Select
error A2050:real or BCD number not allowed
error A2009:syntax error in expression


Code Select
FLOAT  TYPEDEF REAL4

.data
FLN01 REAL4 -0.1
FLN02 FLOAT 0.1
FLN03 FLOAT -0.1
FLN04 FLOAT -1.23


If you are truely disturbed, simply use FLOAT equ <REAL4>, or use JWasm (no error)
