[Gm2] comiler crash with x:=VAL(LONGREAL,MAX(REAL));

[Michael Riedl]

Gaius,

sorry for sending another error report ...

The following simple example

MODULE MaxReal;

VAR   x : LONGREAL;
      y : REAL;

BEGIN
      y:=MAX(REAL);
      x:=VAL(LONGREAL,y);

      x:=VAL(LONGREAL,MAX(REAL));

END MaxReal.

leads to a compiler crash (for the last code line) - used to produce a
"reasonable" big number.

:~/Modula-2/Beispiele$ gm2 MaxReal.mod

Hope that's nothing great - and splitting to two statements is a good
work-around.

Regard / Gruß
