[fpc-devel] SYSUTILS UTF8String Memory Bug

[mark diener]

Jonas:

I am working on the heaptrc and DrMemory analysis today.

Switching to range checks (-CRr) begins a new round of code changing to
handle compile errors as shown by example below.

How would you begin to clean up the code so that range checks

Your response appreciated,

Marco


************************************

For example:

Compile Error Message:

C:\pdev\rpzlib\rpzopsyswin32.pas(46,37) Error: range check error while
evaluating constants

Offending code:

nres := ioctlsocket(socket,FIONBIO, at nblock) ;

So my FIONBIO constant is triggering a compile time error.

>From winsock2.pas:

const
  FIONBIO      = ULONG(IOC_IN or { set/clear non-blocking i/o }
    ((Longint(SizeOf(Longint)) and IOCPARM_MASK) shl 16) or
    (Longint(Byte('f')) shl 8) or 126);

function ioctlsocket( const s: TSocket; cmd: Longint; argp: pu_long ):
Longint; stdcall;external WINSOCK2_DLL name 'ioctlsocket';
