SYMPTOMS
========
An attempt to enter a value in CodeView fails and CodeView generates an error
message. CodeView versions 4.0x, 4.1, and 4.25 generates one of the following
messages:
CXX0004: Error: syntax error
-or-
CAN0004: Error: syntax error
-or-
CXX0013: Error: missing operator
-or-
CAN0013: Error: missing operator
CodeView versions 3.x generate the following message:
CV1017: syntax error
CAUSE
=====
The value has a leading zero and contains an "8" or a "9". CodeView treats a
value that begins with a zero as an octal value. The error occurs when the value
is not a legal octal value.
RESOLUTION
==========
Remove any leading zeros from a decimal number. To enter a decimal number
without regard to the current input radix, prefix the number with "0n" (without
the quotation marks). To enter a hexadecimal number, prefix the number with "0x"
(without the quotation marks).
