A compiler error message, "Internal error near 361F," occurs when the
code below is compiled with the BC.EXE that comes with QuickBASIC
version 4.50.
This problem does NOT occur in the QuickBASIC 4.50 environment, in
QuickBASIC Compiler versions 4.00 or 4.00b, in BASIC Compiler versions
6.00 or 6.00b, or in BASIC Professional Development System (PDS)
version 7.00.
The code example below will cause an "Internal error near 361F" with
BC.EXE in QuickBASIC 4.50. The problem seems to stem from the
complicated integer computation.
To work around this problem, use a temporary variable for part of the
calculation.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in QuickBASIC version
4.50. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new
information here as it becomes available.
The following is a code example:
SUB test (i0%, i1%, i2%, i3%) '4 integer parameters necessary
'Work-around: use temporary variable:
' temp% = i3% \ i2%
' i1% = i1% + temp% + 1
i1% = i1% + i3% \ i2% + 1 'remove any operation fixes
i3% = 1 'this line is necessary
END SUB
