Re: [Phix] Compilation error

BTW I'm using Linux, so the C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\pilx86.e part is another mystery for me...
If you can run ./p -cp (see below) you should then get corrected paths. I will take a closer look at that for the next release.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\pilx86.e:4372 in function jskip() attempt to subscript an atom
I managed to reproduce something similar:
/home/pete/phix/pilx86.e:4372 in function jskip() index 87 out of bounds, reading sequence length 56
There is something nasty going on with "exit" and "end for" which has troubled me on and off for a while now.
The opEndFor instruction fixes up a few things in the preceding opFor, hence should an unconditional exit(/opJmp) optimise away the opEndFor it all goes horribly wrong. Some of my past attempts to fix this have been less than spectacularly effective. What I think I need to do is split the opEndFor in two, with an opEndForFixup part that cannot get optimised away, if that makes any sense.
Anyway, in /home/tom/Documents/Rozne/Coding/Euphoria/pilx86.e you should find at line 4366:
--25/10/17: --/!* --(nope)
change that to "--/*" and the matching "--*!/" on line 4393 to "--*/" and (re-)run ./p -cp
That should fix the immediate problem, but it may re-introduce something else. Meanwhile I will keep working on this.
Thanks,
Pete
PS: There is a deeper problem in that it works fine on Windows but not on Linux, and I need to fully investigate that as well.
